In Sameera's example, the time will be in seconds (because of the /1000 on it).
If you need a true epoch timestamp (milliseconds
since epoch) you will need to remove that.
${__javaScript(new Date().getTime();)}
Is the simplest form of that.
Just use that variable in any fields you need it (note, it will create a new
timestamp each time you use it). You can also create 1
timestamp, and store it in a variable - then use the variable.
There are 2 ways to do this:
1) If you want just 1 value for the whole test, add a "User Defined Variables"
Config Element to your test. This will be evaluated
when you load the test script the first time.
2) If you want to have the value change for every thread execution, but stay
the same during each thread instance: under your
'Thread Group', add a 'Pre Processors -> User Parameters' to your thread group
- and add the variable there.
Also, if you want the value to change each time the thread starts over (each
'iteration' of the script within the thread group), you
can check the "Update Once Per Iteration" box on the User Parameters - and it
will get a new value each time it starts the thread
over at the beginning of th test script (within that thread group).

Hi,
You can add this function directly where you want to generate the epoch time
and then post. Please find below the example
<eb:Timestamp>${__javaScript(Math.round(new Date().getTime() /
1000))}</eb:Timestamp>
Thanks & Regards
Sam

Thank you for the reply Sam!
Can you tell me how I can have Jmeter run that function?
I'm a novice and so do not know :(
Thanks!

Hi,
You can try using the below function. This will act as unique id also
${__javaScript(Math.round(new Date().getTime() / 1000))}
Thanks & Regards

Hi all,
I have a web based java app that requires I pass an epoch time stamp in a post
operation.
Does anyone know how I can get Jmeter to generate it?
Thanks you in advance!
