Test for Different Regional Settings

One of my scenario involves testing the app in different time settings (Ex. China, NewZealand, France, India, US etc.).  How can I change the system settings through script.  and execute my tests.

Hello Madhi,





Here is the VBScript version of the code:







Sub Main

  Dim timezone

  ' Time zones:

  ' HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones

  timezone = "Central Europe Standard Time"

  setTimeZone(timezone)

End Sub





Function setTimeZone(timezone)

  Dim WshShell, cmdLine, WshShellExec 

  Set WshShell = Sys.OleObject("WScript.Shell")

  cmdLine = "RunDLL32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL timedate.cpl,,/Z"

  Set WshShellExec = WshShell.Exec(cmdLine + timezone)

End Function
