Phrase Query

Hi,

I want to search "tes*t", where "*" is not considering as wildcard but as
character. So, I am expecting the results which have tes*t as string as one
of their field value.

Please suggest how to achieve it.

Thanks,
Amit Garg

This requires escaping the special characters with a backslash \.    
The query sent to Solr should would be q=tes\*t

Though this has nothing to do with the subject "Phrase Query".
