Hello eveyrone ! 

I have been searching a lot about that and didn't find an answer. I would like to know how in groovy script, I can have the time of whenthe request was send and the time of when the response was send ? 

Thanx in advance for your help !

There is a way to get the time the request was sent and how long it took to get a respose. You can add those two together to get the response time.

Class RestResponseMessageExchange

messageExchange.getTimestamp() 
messageExchange.getTimeTaken()

It's not clear to me because I get the following result with getTimestamp : 1553695803464  How is it a date ?

Sorry, guess I should have mentioned that timstamp is in unix time. Add this to convert it from unix time.

 Date date = new Date(messageExchange.getTimestamp() );

Please note that the above script (messageExchange) works in only Script Assertion.
