While I'm not currently looking, I went through the cattle call process for testing. In my case it was in a room with 30+ other people.  What surprized me was people arriving for the test in jeans!  For what ever reason I didn't make it past the testing part of the application and the whole bother wasn't woth the time away from work!  I have also found that the position that test in this manner pay the least.
But if it is a company that you really want to work for you have to play the hr game and no I don't think they care about our time.  To continue that rant the temp agencies that want you come in and take 2-3 hours worth of testing and won't do weekends or after hours??!
At least it sounds like you are on the short list and while you don't want to see your competition try some networking, you might get a lead or two. (Companies the candidate is leaving from.)
