It most depend on your exam center (if you choose to take in a exam center instead taking online). I'm my experience I'd arrived sooner than expected and could join without any problem - it will depend if there's any computer available so I bet if you call the test center asking if you can take the test later than expected you wouldn't have any problem. 

 

For online tests I don't know how it works... but I think it's less tolerate.
