Is there a method in java that generates a random date?
If there is, then which one?

Answer 1

There is.
instant.now(); - always new date. It has never been repeated.
It's also possible like this:

public static void main(String[] args) {
        long leftLimit = 0L; // 01/01/1970, 00:00
        long rightLimit = Instant.now().toEpochMilli(); // now
        long generatedLong = leftLimit + (long) (Math.random() * (rightLimit - leftLimit));
        var randomDate = Instant.ofEpochMilli(generatedLong);

        DateTimeFormatter formatter =
                DateTimeFormatter.ofLocalizedDateTime( FormatStyle.SHORT )
                        .withZone( ZoneId.systemDefault() );

        System.out.println( formatter.format( randomDate ));
    }
