UK Test Booking Helper

Summary (short — shows in search results, ~250 char limit)

Watches the DVSA driving-test booking page in your own session and alerts you when an earlier cancellation slot appears. Highlights and optionally auto-selects earlier slots, then stops so you complete the CAPTCHA and payment yourself.

Description (full listing page)

UK Test Booking Helper makes it easier to grab an earlier driving-test cancellation slot on the DVSA booking site — without constantly refreshing the page yourself.


It runs only on the official DVSA practical test booking pages, inside your own logged-in session. When an available slot appears that matches your filters, it:
• Highlights the slot on the page
• Alerts you with a desktop notification and an optional sound
• Optionally auto-selects the earliest matching slot for you (clicks the date, the time, then Reserve) and then STOPS — so you complete the CAPTCHA, review and payment yourself
You stay in full control of every booking.
FILTERS
• Only flag dates earlier than your current test date
• Optional "don't flag dates before" lower bound
• Restrict to your preferred test centres
• Polite auto-refresh with a configurable interval (30-second minimum) and random jitter
WHAT IT WILL NOT DO
• It does not solve CAPTCHAs
• It does not log in for you
• It does not pay or confirm bookings automatically
• It does not book on anyone's behalf but your own
• It does not run in the background on other websites
PRIVACY
No data is collected or transmitted anywhere. Your settings (target date, preferred centres, etc.) are stored locally in your browser using the storage API. The extension has no analytics, no remote servers, and no tracking.

This is an unofficial personal-use tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the DVSA or gov.uk. Please use considerate refresh intervals.

Version notes (release notes for v1.0.0)

Initial release.

• Detects available slots on the DVSA practical test booking pages • Filters by "earlier than my test date", an optional earliest bound, and preferred test centres • Optional auto-select: clicks date → time → Reserve, then stops at the CAPTCHA/confirmation page for you to finish • Desktop notifications, optional sound, and a polite jittered auto-refresh (30s minimum) • Optional on-page debug overlay for diagnosing detection • Stores settings locally; collects and transmits no data

Notes to Reviewer

This add-on activates only on driverpracticaltest.dvsa.gov.uk, which requires a real DVSA driving-test booking (licence number + booking reference) to reach the slot pages. We cannot provide a shared test account for a UK government service.

To verify behaviour without an account, open test/test-runner.html from the source. It loads the real content.js and content.css again

Is UK Test Booking Helper Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

UK Test Booking Helper requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Medium ******* ******* ************* ***** *** ** ******* *** **** ******* ****** ******** *******
Low ******* ****** ** *** ********* ******** ******

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

UK Test Booking Helper is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
