Default wildcards do not seem to work

Hi
I use wildcards for =countif function and it works
but when I use it with for example =if(b30="*test", "yes", "no") it always
gives me a "no" in the cell.
if in include the asterisk in the B30 cell the if is successful.
what am i doing wrong?
Regards
Norman
