Hey LeapTester,

CODE

from java.lang import *

def getTime():
   time = System.currentTimeMillis()
   print time
   return time

That should do it. Good luck testing!

In one of my testmethod , i have one field(input parameter) set effective date:
I want to write script for setting effective date which includes format like:2006-01-20T15:16:20.035Z
Can you please provide me javascript or python example for setting this effective date and also
manipulating this date with '+' or' '-' some days.

Thanks
LeapTester

To get a date in this format, you can use Java's SimpleDateFormat class and use the Calendar class to mess with the day information:

CODE

from java.util import *
from java.text import *

def getTime():
   # Get an instance of the calendar
   calendar = Calendar.getInstance()

   # Set the day in the calendar
   day = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK)
   calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, day+1)

   # Retreive the date from the calendar
   date = calendar.getTime()

   # Create the date formatter
   myFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'"
   formatter = SimpleDateFormat(myFormat)

   # Create, print, and return the timestamp
   timestamp = formatter.format(date)
   print timestamp
   return timestamp

Where I set the day in the calendar you can see that I have incremented it by one. You can include any additional logic to modify the day as you would like. Just FYI: that day number is automatically wrapped so that if you go past the number of days in the month, it will automatically increment (or decrement) the month as well.

Dudes you guys rule! Now if you would support Perl as well as Python/Jython that would make me even happier:D.

thanks again,
