RegEx in Cypher

Neo4j Graph Platform Cypher
1

Regex patterns in Cypher do not appear to implement some PCRE features like lookahead or lookbehind. I am trying a pattern that works in www.regex101.com but not in cypher:

WITH [x in keys(row) WHERE x =~ '(?<=Test\\s)[\\w\\s]*(?=-Plate\\sID)' | x ] AS panels

I am escaping backslashes due to errors reported in console.

Neo4j is relying here on the JVM's regex implementation which is not listed as a flavour on www.regex101.com. See Pattern (Java Platform SE 8 ) for a syntax description.

Thank you! This is the reference I need. I should have made the connection between Java and the implementation of regex that Neo4j uses.
