Use regex.test()
if all you want is a boolean result:
console.log(/^([a-z0-9]{5,})$/.test('abc1')); // false
console.log(/^([a-z0-9]{5,})$/.test('abc12')); // true
console.log(/^([a-z0-9]{5,})$/.test('abc123')); // true
…and you could remove the ()
from your regexp since you’ve no need for a capture.
