Not sure what advice your asking for here, was there any particular parts of the EICR you were scratching your head about?.. luckily their is a nice concise section of the regs dedicated to such special locations so as long as your aware of the general requirements of the BS7671 and the special location requirements then you should be ok.

Not so much the testing just more advice on the ways to go about things. Its going to be in use all day.
Out of hours would probably be a good start!

Ha tell me about it, I did think that. Im not the boss though
You need a detailed discussion with the swimming pool manager and maintenance manager to agree a schedule of circuit outages and power outages.
You also need to agree some limitations, such as lighting being off could be dangerous in such an area so live testing only or some such.

My mistake, you posted 'EICR done' in past tense so was asking if you had any queries after.
