+<description><p>The response assertion control panel lets you add pattern strings
to be compared against various
+ fields of the response.
+ The pattern strings are Perl5-style regular expressions. You can also choose
whether the strings will be expected
+to <b>match</b> the entire response, or if the response is only expected to
<b>contain</b> the
+pattern. You can attach multiple assertions to any controller for additional
flexibility.</p>
+<p>Note that the pattern string should not include the enclosing brackets,
+ i.e. use <b>Price: (\d+)</b> not <b>/Price: (\d+)/</b>.
+ By default, the pattern is in multi-line mode, which means that the "."
meta-character does not match newline.
+ Case is also significant. To override these settings, one can use the extended
regular expression syntax.
+ For example:
+</p>
+<pre>
+ (?i) - ignore case
+ (?s) - treat target as single line, i.e. "." matches new-line
+ (?is) - both the above
+</pre>
