At the moment i have to write a lot of Integeration Tests for a migration project. The old code uses java.util.Date a lot, but the project runs in Java 17. So i wanted to use the newer Date Classes for my tests.
I used the following two helper methods to convert Date to LocalDateTime and back.
private LocalDateTime toLocalDateTime(Date toConvert) {
var instant = toConvert.toInstant();
var zonedDateTime = instant.atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault());
return zonedDateTime.toLocalDateTime();
}
private Date toDate(LocalDateTime toConvert) {
var zonedDateTime = toConvert.atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault());
return Date.from(zonedDateTime.toInstant());
}
