Testing Expiration Information Management Policy

Scenario:
I have been asked this question so many times and there are lot of funny things associated with this one :-)

So as we all know about Information Management Policy feature and of the most commonly used options is Expiring the content. I have written special Workflows which should run as per the Information Management Policy.

As by default Expiration Job runs once every day, I know people who really waited one day to see it working.. lol ( told you its funny )

But question is how do we test it ?

Solution:
SharePoint Central Administration has solution for you. Kinda hidden

Navigate to Central Administration > Operations > Information Management Policy Configuration > Expiration

Link to the page:
