How can I get the system clock time in a global variable of when button (object) is clicked?

(1) - I would like to create a test in JavaScript that will capture the system date/time (T1) of when the button was clicked and store that time in a global variable. Next compare the captured time ...

    Somethig like this,

        Aliases.Fetchbtn.Click(); // Perform click here
    const t1 = new Date(Date.now());
    Log.Message("First button clicked at: " + t1.toUTCString());

Hello rraghvani , please excuse me, but I am trying to call the function callTimeVariable1() to reuse the time in another script i.e. DurationTime1()

Can you correct my code?  There is no error and also nothing in the message log. 

 

Note: TimeVariable1() run fine.

 

function callTimeVariable1() {
   return new Date(Date.now());
}


function DurationTime1()

{
    const t1 = callTimeVariable1()
    Log.Message("First button clicked at:" + t1.toUTCString());
    aqUtils.Delay(3000);
 
    const t2 = new Date(Date.now());
    Log.Message("Second button clicked at:" + t2.toUTCString());
    aqUtils.Delay(3000);
 
    var diff = (t2 - t1) / 1000;
    Log.Message("Duration Time" +diff);
}
