      Issue Summary

      Search fails to find pages with text due to tokenization. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Go to confluence search
      2. Added text on the page is " Text = abc.xyz.TestHelper:text (Content) "
      3. Searching the page using the text "TestHelper" should list the page.

      Expected Results

      List the page with the search text in the search result.

      Actual Results

      The search result is empty.

      When searched with the complete text "abc.xyz.TestHelper:text" the page is listed.
      
      Here the text is split up into only three tokens
      "Text"
      "abc.xyz.TestHelper:text"
      "(Content)"

      This is just how the OpenSearch standard and our custom analyzers see this text. This means partial text match of the single token wont work. The development team is working towards improving the search experience for these cases.

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
