Set current date as dynamic field value

[Community Alums]

I'm trying to use ATF to test the Change process, and when closing off the implementation phase I would like to use the current date set programatically, rather than having to set this manually before running the test. I don't seem to see any options for setting dynamic date/time values when setting up test steps, does anyone know if this is possible?

Hello -  try below as a value

javascript: gs.nowDateTime();

OR

javascript: new GlideDateTime();

If this is Date field NOT Date/Time then try below

javascript: new GlideDateTime().getDate();

Updated above response to add third option.

The below thread is not a direct solution to your question but I am adding as a helpful material here, In addition to my above response.

In the ATF, select the test step as 'Set Field Values' and try below

Select the field for which you want to set current date and time and use the code as 'javascript: gs.nowDateTime()'
