Dynamic Date population in the Set Field Values in the Automated Test Framework (ATF)

[vishalk]

Greetings.  I am trying to do something similar.  I have a catalog item that I want to populate the "required by" date field with a date always a week from today.  I added a script include:  

var myDatePicker = Class.create();
myDatePicker.prototype = {
    initialize: function() {
    },

	// pass in the number of days in the future
	// usage: javascript:new myDatePicker().getFutureDate(3);
	// the above will set your date to 3 days in the future
	getFutureDate : function(futureDate) {
		
		var gdt = new GlideDateTime();

		gdt = gdt.addDaysLocalTime(futureDate);

		
		return gdt.getDate();
	},

    type: 'myDatePicker'
};

But it doesn't seem to be setting the date.  When I set a validation step looking for 11/22 it's failing.  Any help would be appreciated.

I think the javascript expression should NOT be in quotes.

javascript: gs.daysAgo(-7) is not working for custom UI, i tried all the options, but no luck.

Is there any way that i can provide future date in the custom UI?
