Javascript Multiple Word Regex

I am working with the jQuery datatables library and passing a regular expression to filter a particular column.

I'd like to pass something like "Test 123" and "Test 321" and it return any rows with either of those two words.

I have tried something like this without any luck:

/(?=.*?TEST 123)(?=.*?TEST 321).*/i

I've also tried this, but only returns the second result

TEST 123|TEST 321

Thanks in advance!

Added the 'OR' condition to the test - 

(TEST 123)|(TEST 321)
