Matching a string that includes single quote.

[nastasi]

I'm wondering how to escaping single quote in a simple comparison like:

  <string_attribute> is '<a string including single quote>'

Update, I found a Baroque way:

  <string_attribute> is 'name with single ' + "'" + ' quote' 
  # escaping with: quote, plus, double quotes, quote, double quotes, plus, quote

and the Rococo one:

  <string_attribute> is 'name with single ' + unescape('&apos;') + ' quote' 

Is it the most compact way to achieve it ?

Use Escape character.

Use Escape character.

That is what I'm looking for from the beginning (also in the documentation), could you share which is it ?

There are examples.

I already looked that without any clue, I cannot find the escape character that you mention above. So, probably, the ...' + "'" + '... is the more compact way to escape quote in a delimited quote string, could you confirm ?

self.assertEqual(execute("'a'+'b'+\"c\""), 'abc')

I think you miss the point, I'm interested to compare with is the string a'b"c, not abc. What is the compactest way to do it ?

The question seems to me clear from the beginning ... I'm sorry if it wasn't for you.
