A formula for Shadowrun 4 for the first Extended Test with Edge and Rush options.
shrun4(1d6,DP+(Edge*UseE)-0,5,7-UseE,1+Rush)
Named Values
DP: Dice Pool (1 to 30, could be higher)
Edge: The PCs permanent Edge (0 to 7)
UseE: The Use Edge Flag (0 for False/Do not use, 1 for True/Use Edge)
Rush: The Rush Extended Test Flag (0 for False, 1 for True)
The second and third and so on tests use the same formula but have an incrementing -1 to the Dice Pool variable. Have a Dice bag with 6 or 10 or whatever, labeled Test 1, Test 2, etc and you can quickly tap though a whole string of extended rolls in about 10% of the time doing it by hand.
