Javascript Regex: "Any word" pattern -

in jasmine test, trying set match fit expressions like:

'request <any_word> <any_word> - open actions menu'.

however, it's not being possible line, javascript doc says \\w regex word:

expect(item.geticontooltip()).tomatch('request \\w \\w - open actions menu'); 

any hint?

use + repeat previous token 1 or more times. \\w alone match single word character only.

expect(item.geticontooltip()).tomatch('request \\w+ \\w+ - open actions menu');
