I have a list of expression language tools:
https://regexr.com/ <https://regexr.com/> with PCRE mode
https://www.debuggex.com/ <https://www.debuggex.com/>
https://extendsclass.com/regex-tester.html
<https://extendsclass.com/regex-tester.html>
but would love to know if there is a tool where a person could give sample
input (like your filename) then simply trial and error test at the expression
language until you got the output you desired in realtime. Does this exist?

I have an incoming filename that includes the pattern

This is the expression I attempt to use, but it seems to choke on the capture
group reference:
filename ${filename:replaceFirst('([0-9]{14})',
'$1:toDate("yyyyMMddHHmmss","UTC"):toNumber()'}
How do I get this to work, applying expression language functions to the
capture group?
Thanks.
