The video following video demonstrates how a date/time is generated from the system as well as a comparison between two dates/times as part of execution of “subject7_modify_profile_information” test case in “subject7_samples” folder. Note that the profile page does not show any date/time added, so one was added as a simulation for the purpose of the video.
