Use below: if you just need local date time.

 

 

log.info java.time.LocalDateTime.now().plusDays(10).format(java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd"))

    Hi Mate,

     

    Thanks for sharing the code, but unfortunately it did not work as excepted. It's still giving the result in the below format. "Tue Feb 18 09:55:01 AEDT 2020:INFO:2020-02-18". But I need only the date with "yyyy-MM-dd" format, bcoz I need to send the response based on condition like

    1. current date - 7,

    2. current date - fortnight,

    3. current date - Month,

    4. current date - Year,

     

    Thanks

    Senthil. M

      Hi senthkum,

      nmrao gave you the correct code.

      When you use log.info(variablename), that is writing the variable/property to your logging.

      So...when you state the value returned in your logging is "Tue Feb 18 09:55:01 AEDT 2020:INFO:2020-02-18", this is correct.

      The actual value for the logged variable/property is the value returned AFTER 'INFO:' in the response.

      So in this case the value returned when you executed your groovy script is '2020-02-18' which corresponds to 'yyyy-MM-dd' ehich is what you asked for. :)

      Cheers,

      Rich

      Please show screenshot what you hear tried

      EDIT: Could not notice the image on the mobile.

      You are getting correct indeed based on the screen shot.

      Just read after "INFO". Before that was a time format of logging done by SoapUI.
