Here's a sample groovy script that you can use to offset by hours/days/etc.

 

def now = Calendar.getInstance()
String TimeStamp;
 
// Can offset by various fields
// HOUR
// DAY_OF_WEEK
// etc
now[HOUR] = now[HOUR] + offset;

Timestamp = now.format("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS");

    Hi All,

     

    So far in my suite property have used ${= new Date().format('yyyy-MM-dd')}

     

    this will help us to get the current date and time 

     

    but now I need to get the date current date + 2 or -2

     

    I tried like

    but it's not working.

      From examples in the link sanj suggested

       

      new Date().plus(2).format('yyyy-MM-dd')
      new Date().minus(2).format('yyyy-MM-dd')
