There is a planned strike on Friday 13th July by driving test examiners.  Not all examiners belong to the union that is striking so not all tests will be canceled.  The dsa have advised that if you have a test to turn on as normal and if it's canceled due to the strike your test will be rebooked for you automatically.  See the link below for more details.
