The diversion went on for quite some time, just remember when doing radio nav, ident every signal.

Don't stress, it doesn't help.
Read up on some of the numbers, such as best rate of climb, speeds for glide approach, cruise etc. I was asked for them, then asked to stick to them during the flight.
Think of it more as an audit of your instructor than a test of your abilities: You would not have been put forward if there wasn't a very high chance of success, since failure will mostly mean a bad decision on the instructors part.

I was also pretty stressed before my test but it turned out to be one of the most enjoyable flights I had. By the end I'd even forgot it was a test. Just remember to take your time and think about things. The only things you have to do that have time pressure are the PFL and EFATO. For everything else (stalls, steep turns, etc) there's no hurry so have a bit of a think.
Good luck
