[YouTube-API] Live events, times and delayed status

Hi,

I'm retrieving the details for a channel's live events using the api and have a couple of questions relating to how the broadcaster workflow matches up to the api responses:

Does a status of 'delayed' against a live event happen automatically if the start time passes without someone having clicked 'Start Broadcasting', or is something the channel-owner sets explicitly?

With 'start', does that get updated when someone clicked 'Start broadcasting' to reflect the actual start time?
Similarly for 'end', does that get updated if an event is manually ended early or late?

Is there any way for a developer to test these kinds of things without actually having a live-enabled account? I wouldn't actually want to broadcast anything...

Greg.
