Adding timestamp to report name

Post by Fergal » Wed May 24, 2017 11:30 am

Code: Select all

/rf:CustomReportName.rxlog
When the test suite is run from the command line, the code above will name the test report file "CustomReportName.rxlog".

Is it possible to add a timestamp to that report name, so that when the test is run from the command line, the report file name would be something like "CustomReportName_20170524_112349.rxlog" ?

Thanks.

Hi,

Use this sequence of placeholders in rf command:

Code: Select all

/rf:%S_%Y%M%D_%T.rxzlog
For detailed explanation of each placeholder, check this user guide chapter:
