    About 2-3 hours, when I called in the morning at 9 it was already testing, and by 1130 it was boxing.

    have to agree with Scrop1on, I checked it around 5 and I was in testing, went to dinner and checked it again around 7 and it was in boxing

    For this poll, I would think it's better to have the option in terms of hours... I believe that testing usually takes a few hours at most.

    well testing might take longer for some people.
    There might be something wrong that the laptop failed the testing stage and went back,but the stage isn't changed on the phone; since the re-build could take about an hour, then put it back in for testing

    Yeah, the "less than a day" option is more for those that only took a few hours. If all goes well and as planned, testing shouldn't take more than a few hours. I've been in testing for about 4 hours now, so I'm hoping to get out of it soon!
