The test itself is short. You can be done in few minutes (20 multiple choice questions) . its almost the same time you need to do the driving license test.
After the test you will interview an officer. You might wait for some time until your turn comes or go the first or second one, it depends on how they order the people for the interview.
The interview itself is short. few general chats. check the papers you bring with you, and have a good day, bye bye.
