title: Using the current date in a Gatling test
body: <p>I am trying to load test an application using Gatling, and the application needs the current date to be inserted into the test:</p>
  
  <pre><code>.formParam("dateCreation", "07/01/2015 16:48:04")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If it's hard coded it seems to upset the application being tested.</p>
  
  <p>How can I generate the above string at the time of each request? (It's European format - <code>day/month/year</code>)</p>
  
  <p>Scala isn't my strong point. I'm using Gatling 2.0.3.</p>
