Hi,
you can display the date format in dd-mm-yy by using the below Java code.
First import the bellow java classes.
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
//and add bellow code in run() function
     //************ Display Date and Time *************
     Date date_format=new Date();
     SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-mm-yyyy");// HH:mm:ss");
     String Exec_Time = dateFormat.format(date_format);
//output statement
info("Today's Date: "+Exec_Time);
I can able to add the screenshot of this output here, so if you need any other information please write to me.
