So, add a test for that as well: `#!/usr/bin/env perl use strict; use warnings; use Test::More tests => 2; my $line = 'root 1435 0.0 0.0 147236 7548 ? Ss 08:46 + 0:02 /usr/local/httpd-2.4.16/bin/httpd -k start'; my $processName = 'httpd'; my $owner = 'root'; my ($pid) = $line =~ qr\|$owner\s+(\d*)\s+\d.+$processName\|; is ($pid, '1435', 'Match'); is ($1, '1435', 'Match');` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
