This PR adds two extensive REGEXP test suites, judged by MySQL 8.4. Each case expects the result that a real MySQL server returned, so the tests show exactly where the driver differs from MySQL.
The cases come from two sources:
MySQL server test suite: 12,684 cases, built from the REGEXP, RLIKE, and REGEXP_*() patterns in MySQL's own tests.
ICU's regextst.txt: 3,965 cases from the regex tests of ICU, the library that MySQL uses for regular expressions. ICU's copyright and license (Unicode License V3) are kept next to the data.
Each case stores MySQL's results for REGEXP_LIKE(), REGEXP_INSTR(), REGEXP_SUBSTR(), and REGEXP_REPLACE(). There is one test class per function, and it lists the cases that fail today in get_known_failures(). A test fails when an unlisted case fails, and also when a listed case starts to pass, so the list must shrink as REGEXP support improves. Cases that fail only with some PHP or PCRE versions are listed under version checks that name the cause.
To measure the current state, this PR also adds a basic REGEXP_LIKE(). It reuses the existing matching of the REGEXP operator and adds match types. Like in MySQL, it returns NULL for a NULL argument, and so does the operator now. With PHP 8.5 and PCRE2 10.49, it fails 302 of the 12,684 MySQL cases and 951 of the 3,965 ICU cases. The tests of the other functions are skipped until the functions exist.
To rebuild the data from a MySQL server, run tests/tools/generate-regexp-test-data.php.
Why
REGEXP support needs improvements, which will come in later PRs. These suites give us a baseline to measure them: a fix shows up as known failures that now pass, and a regression as a new failure.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added support for MySQL-compatible REGEXP_LIKE matching, including case sensitivity, multiline and dot-all options, and NULL results when inputs are NULL.
The REGEXP and NOT REGEXP operators now return NULL when their inputs require it.
Tests
Added broad compatibility checks for regular expression behavior. Support for REGEXP_INSTR, REGEXP_REPLACE, and REGEXP_SUBSTR remains unavailable.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The SQLite UDF registry adds REGEXP_LIKE and routes REGEXP through it. The PR also adds a CLI tool that generates MySQL and ICU regex test data, a PHPUnit comparison harness, and tests for match options, NULL values, and engine-specific differences.
Changes: REGEXP_LIKE support and tests
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Implement REGEXP_LIKE and update REGEXP packages/mysql-on-sqlite/src/sqlite/class-wp-sqlite-pdo-user-defined-functions.php
The registry adds regexp_like. The method handles NULL arguments and match-type flags. regexp delegates to it and uses match type c for patterns with a leading NUL.
The shared test class loads cases and compares SQL results with recorded expectations. The REGEXP_LIKE test class declares known failures based on PCRE and PHP versions.
Generate MySQL and ICU test data packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/tools/generate-regexp-test-data.php, packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/regexp/data/icu-regextst-license.txt
The CLI tool extracts MySQL and ICU regex cases, judges them on MySQL, and writes JSON results. The license file records the ICU test-data source and terms.
Add direct and function-coverage tests packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/WP_MySQL_On_SQLite_Tests.php, packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/regexp/WP_MySQL_On_SQLite_Regexp_{Instr,Replace,Substr}_Tests.php
Direct tests cover match options, NULL arguments, and invalid match types. Test classes for REGEXP_INSTR, REGEXP_REPLACE, and REGEXP_SUBSTR skip setup because those functions are not yet supported.

If a known scalar mismatch changes to a PHP warning or exception, this comparison still passes because it checks only the case ID. Record and compare the expected failure kind for each known case so the suite detects that regression.

@packages/mysql-on-sqlite/src/sqlite/class-wp-sqlite-pdo-user-defined-functions.php:
- Around line 618-620: Update the regex flag handling near the $flags
initialization so patterns without the u flag use MySQL’s default line-ending
behavior, including treating carriage returns as line breaks for dot and
multiline anchors. Preserve Unix-only line-ending behavior when u is present.
- Around line 638-640: Update the REGEXP_LIKE matching path around `preg_match`
to use UTF-8-aware matching for valid text, so `é` is treated as one character.
Preserve existing behavior for other supported inputs, and remove from the
known-failure list any cases that pass with the UTF-8-aware matching.
- Line 640: Check the result of `preg_match()` before returning it,
distinguishing `false` from valid match results of `0` or `1`. When it returns
`false`, report the regex failure through the existing query-error mechanism so
invalid patterns such as `[` fail as query errors rather than becoming empty SQL
values.
- Line 638: Update the $pattern delimiter construction to preserve existing
slash escapes: add an escape before a delimiter only when the immediately
preceding backslash count is even, and leave it unchanged when that count is
odd. Preserve the existing flags assembly.

Register a regexp_like() function, which SQLite runs for REGEXP_LIKE().
It takes MySQL's argument order and the match type letters "c", "i",
"m", "n", and "u". Without a match type, it ignores case, like the
REGEXP operator. Of "c" and "i", the last one wins, like in MySQL.
The regexp() function of the REGEXP operator now uses regexp_like().
It keeps its name, because SQLite runs "X REGEXP Y" as "regexp(Y, X)",
and CHECK constraints in existing databases call it. It now returns
NULL for a NULL argument, like MySQL.
The matching itself is unchanged, so REGEXP_LIKE() has the same gaps
as the operator.
Check the REGEXP functions against what MySQL 8.4 returns. A case is
a pattern, a subject, and a match type, where a null match type runs
without the argument. Each function has a test class that runs its
checks through the driver: REGEXP_LIKE(), REGEXP_INSTR() for the start
and end of the first match, REGEXP_SUBSTR(), and REGEXP_REPLACE() with
a template that shows every match and capture group.
The cases take the patterns of REGEXP, RLIKE, and REGEXP_*() from the
MySQL server test suite, with their own subjects and a fixed set of
varied subjects.
Each class lists the cases that are expected to fail, where any of its
checks fails, and its test fails when they differ. Cases that fail only
with some PHP or PCRE versions are listed under version checks, with
the cause of each. The tests of REGEXP_INSTR(), REGEXP_SUBSTR(), and
REGEXP_REPLACE() are skipped until these functions exist.
"tests/tools/generate-regexp-test-data.php" rebuilds the data from a
MySQL server.
Take the cases of ICU's own regex test file, pinned at a commit and
checked by its SHA-256 hash. The generator reads the file like ICU's
test runner: it unescapes the subject and removes the group tags.
ICU flags map to MySQL match types: "i", "m", "s", and "D" become "i",
"m", "n", and "u", and "x" becomes "(?x)". Cases that MySQL can't run
are left out: literal mode ("Q"), strict escapes ("e"), regions, and
subjects with lone surrogates. Flags for ICU's API, like the number of
searches, give the same MySQL case, so duplicates are left out too.
The data keeps ICU's copyright and the Unicode License V3 next to it.
