Branch specifier regex in Jenkins scripted pipeline

Suppose i want to define pipeline for different branches under same scripted pipeline, how to define the regex for certain pattern of branches. Say for example :-

if(env.BRANCH_NAME ==~ /release.*/){
	 stage("Deploy"){
		echo 'Deployed release to QA'
	 }

Here i want to define that regex in such a way for any branch of the pattern

*release*

(meaning any branch with release string in it). How to achieve that?

And similarly how to achieve something like :-

if the branch is anything but develop, master, release(pattern).

and if you don't use groovy you can do it like below:

stage('build') {
        when {
            expression {
                !env.BRANCH_NAME.startsWith('release')
            }
        }
        steps {
            ...
        }
}

You can use this regex for matching branch name like develop, release, hotfix.

if (branch_name =~ 'develop|hotfix.*|release.*') {

  stage("Deploy") {
        echo 'Deployed release to QA'
    }
}

If you're using groovy you may use the following

if ((env.BRANCH_NAME =~ '.*release.*').matches()) {
    stage("Deploy"){
        echo 'Deployed release to QA'
    }
}

And if you want to match any branch name but develop, master or release, you may use the following regex

if ((env.BRANCH_NAME =~ '^((?!develop|master|release).)*$').matches()) {
    stage("Deploy"){
        echo 'Deployed release to QA'
    }
}
