-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: LANG-556
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-556
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Ben Arnold
            Priority: Minor


It is often really useful to be able to get a date in one line of code, 
particularly in unit tests. It is also handy to be able to obtain the current 
time in a specified timezone.

It would be great to have methods like these on DateUtils:

Date now(TimeZone)
Date nowUtc()

Date createDate(int year, int month, int day) // local time
Date createDate(int year, int month, int day, int hour, minute, int second) // 
local time
Date createDateUtc(int year, int month, int day)
Date createDateUtc(int year, int month, int day, int hour, minute, int second)
Date createDate(TimeZone timeZone, int year, int month, int day)
Date createDate(TimeZone timeZone, int year, int month, int day, int hour, 
minute, int second)
