One take-home test I declined was for a advertised web job that turned out to require lots of PHP knowledge and plugin editing experience.
They seemed offended when I was frank that it would take much longer than the 1 hour they were quoting and that it wouldn't be a real demonstration of skills but more so what I could cram.
OTOH, my current work does a sort of take-home test but it can't be faked/cheated on because you have to record yourself teaching something.
