time difference

I write a groovy script to save the date when the test case was executed:

def date = new Date()
def formattedDate = date.format('yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss')
log.info formattedDate
def props = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName( "Properties" )
props.setPropertyValue("xxxxxx", formattedDate);

Result: Tue Feb 26 15:41:18 CET 2013:INFO:2013-02-26 15:41:18

When I executed the test case, the test steps must be executed only if are passed 10 days from the previous execution.

How I can check the time difference between the two execution ?

    baseDate = new Date()

    newDate = new Date()

    if(newDate >= (baseDate + 10)) {
     log.info '10 days passed do stuff here'
    }

    Thanks; I put the feedback in the following groovy script:

    def distretto = context.expand( '${#Global#distretto}' )
    def Path_UDB = context.expand( '${#Global#Path_UDB}' )
    def testDataSet = []
    def failureList = []
    def fileName = "${Path_UDB}\\VDCRTG\\data_cap_${distretto}.txt"
    new File(fileName).eachLine { line -> testDataSet.add( line.split(",") ) }
    context.setProperty( "failureList", failureList )
    context.setProperty( "testDataSet", testDataSet )
    context.setProperty( "index", 0 )
    def testDataSet1 = context.getProperty("testDataSet")
    def index = context.getProperty("index")
    def testDataLine = testDataSet1[index]
    def props = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName( "Properties" )
    props.setPropertyValue("data_cap", testDataLine[0])
    newDate = new Date()
    log.info ("newDate = $newDate")
    baseDate = props.getPropertyValue("data_cap")
    log.info ("baseDate = $baseDate")
    if( newDate >= (baseDate + 10))
    {
    props.setPropertyValue("timer", "25000")
    log.info '10 days passed from previous CAP'
    f = new File("${Path_UDB}\\VDCRTG\\data_cap_${distretto}.txt")
    f.write("$newDate")
    }
    else
    {
    props.setPropertyValue("timer", "1000")
    }

    When I execute it, I have the following error: Wed Feb 27 11:15:31 CET 2013:ERROR:An error occured [java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.util.Date], see error log for details

    The error actually has the solution for you, see this "java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.util.Date"
    Properties in soapUI are stored as strings (correct me if i am wrong), all you have to do is transform your string to date.

    import
    //import this
    import java.text.SimpleDateFormat


    change


    baseDate = props.getPropertyValue("data_cap")


    to


    //get the string "data_cap" and parse it to date()
    //if you are not using hours, minutes and sconds, delete hh:mm:ss
    baseDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd hh:mm:ss").parse(props.getPropertyValue("data_cap"))




    your changed code

    //import this
    import java.text.SimpleDateFormat

    def distretto = context.expand( '${#Global#distretto}' )
    def Path_UDB = context.expand( '${#Global#Path_UDB}' )
    def testDataSet = []
    def failureList = []
    def fileName = "${Path_UDB}\\VDCRTG\\data_cap_${distretto}.txt"

    new File(fileName).eachLine { line -> testDataSet.add( line.split(",") ) }

    context.setProperty( "failureList", failureList )
    context.setProperty( "testDataSet", testDataSet )
    context.setProperty( "index", 0 )

    def testDataSet1 = context.getProperty("testDataSet")
    def index = context.getProperty("index")
    def testDataLine = testDataSet1[index]

    def props = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName( "Properties" )
    props.setPropertyValue("data_cap", testDataLine[0])
    newDate = new Date()
    log.info ("newDate = $newDate")

    //get the string "data_cap" and parse it to date()
    //if you are not using hours, minutes and sconds, delete hh:mm:ss
    baseDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd hh:mm:ss").parse(props.getPropertyValue("data_cap"))


    if( newDate >= (baseDate + 10)) {
     props.setPropertyValue("timer", "25000")
     log.info '10 days passed from previous CAP'
     f = new File("${Path_UDB}\\VDCRTG\\data_cap_${distretto}.txt")
     f.write("$newDate")
    } else {
     props.setPropertyValue("timer", "1000")
    }
