I am afraid you have misunderstood how \b works. \btest\)\b matches a word
boundary, followed by "test", followed by ")" followed by a word boundary. A
word boundary is a place where a word character (letter, digit, or underscore)
is adjacent to a non-word character. After matching ")", the current position
is not at a word boundary, because both ")" and " " are non-word characters.
