Extract Numbers from a String in Scenario Editor

Extract Numbers from a String in Scenario Editor

Use this pattern when a Scenario Editor test needs to capture numeric values from application text, such as prices, IDs, quantities, or decimal values.

Recommended guidance

• Extract only the value required by the validation or downstream step.
• Preserve decimal points only when the business value requires them.
• Normalize currency symbols, commas, spaces, and labels before comparison.
• Store extracted values with clear names when they are reused later.

Validation workflow

1. Capture the source text from the page, response, or stored value.
2. Apply the extraction rule to isolate the numeric value.
3. Validate the extracted value against expected test data or business rules.
4. Record the source text and extracted value when troubleshooting failures.

string.replace(/[^0-9.]/g, "") / string.replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9.]/g, '')
