Hi Neil,
Thanks but nope. This is not a formatting issue, it's that the CurrentDate variable provided by NeoLoad doesn't update.
My workaround is to code it:
var date = today.getFullYear()+'-'+(today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate();
var time = today.getHours() + ":" + today.getMinutes() + ":" + today.getSeconds();
var dateTime = date+' '+time;
this is working.
Could it be a defect with the app?
here is my js:
var lock = new java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantLock();
var currDate = context.variableManager.getValue("CurrentDate");
var today = new Date();
var date = today.getFullYear()+'-'+(today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate();
var time = today.getHours() + ":" + today.getMinutes() + ":" + today.getSeconds();
var dateTime = date+' '+time;
lock.lock();
var writer = new java.io.FileWriter("c:/currDate.txt",true);
writer.write(currDate);
writer.write(" -- ")
writer.write("NeoLoad Variable")
writer.write("\r\n");
writer.write(dateTime);
writer.write(" -- ")
writer.write("\r\n");
writer.close();
lock.unlock();
i added a 1s delay and ran in 100 times in the UserPath checker comparing NeoLoad CurrentDate variable and my js variable. The results are in the file below. You will notice that my date variable changes but the NeoLoad canned variable does not. It shows the date that the variable was created.
sure, go ahead
thanks Neil,
i noticed that your currDate variable was different than mine. it appears that the variable was not correctly created. once corrected, the date does update.
