FitNesseForAppian Release v17.3.2 - How to get the Todays date from the calender

Hi Satheesh,

Have you made sure to remove the ! before the |script| at the beginning of your fixture table? This is my best guess as the the cause of the error that you are seeing. Preceding a test table with the ! will make any widgets in the table (such as !today) inoperable.

You'll then want to use !today (MM/dd/yyyy) as brettw has suggested. So your script will look something like the following:

|script|
|populate field| Due Date| with | !today (MM/dd/yyyy) |

Thanks,
Lucas

Hi

Thanks for replying,

as you mentioned, I deleted ! before the script and now I can see the date in the below format at the save mode, I think due to this format, it is not picking date from the calendar during execution of the script, can you please adivse how to resolve this ?

Please find the attached screen shot for the format

 

You'll want to surround the MM/dd/yyyy in () rather than {}, so it should be (MM/dd/yyyy)
