Step 5

Lastly, you select your desired test date and start time. In this case, if you are running a Rapid Test that is set to begin at 4:00pm on Tuesday, 5th March, you should expect it to deliver results by 6:00pm the same day.

Note: Due to our Team Lead review and invitation process, the earliest a test can start is the next full hour +1 (e.g. current time: 9:40am / test time: 11:00am, current time: 5:05pm / test time: 7:00pm). Duration ranges vary based on Test Type, from two hours (Rapid Test) up to 48 hours.


Click Create Test.
This will essentially save the test in "draft." At this point:

•You should review all test information and make any adjustments as needed before you submit the test and tester/Team Leader invitations go out.
•If you need to leave and return to it, can find your test on the "All Tests" page in the same state. 

Note: There is no "draft" for Rapid Tests, the test is in the "Submitted" stage once you complete the test creation wizard.
