I would say to pull the pack down from full charge to 3v per cell (maybe 10 amp load?) and see what the capacity is. The done the load tests at 10-20-30-40c, etc. That way you do not need to even look at the label on the pack, just go by the data that you log. So you will get a real world capacity and current ability. Some oscillating tests from 1c to 40c over a few seconds, then repeated would also be interesting, just to see pack performance. Also noting pack imbalance after load testing would be handy.
