Direct cell hookup would be the best test for the cell performance, but since we use these in packs in the "real world", I think the testing should be done that way too. Heck, even a very good cell can appear crappy if using poor assembly techniques and substandard wiring. Testing a pack would account for all of that. Of course, discrete cell results will be better than pack results, but testing packs would give people expected results. If they get cell tests, then take eagletree graphs of the pack, they may note the discrepancy and not trust the tests. Once credibilit is destroyed, then all that work/money is down the drain.
