I agree the less dismantling the better during an eicr but ring final conductors end to end is a must for me, i do not however do the full 3 step ring final tests but do zs at every socket outlet. Who does do the 3 step test on an eicr?
I do the three step. If you're dismantling for end to end then there's no extra skin off your back to do the other two steps
 
An EICR is a "snap shot" of a installation this is NICEIC's view, i spend about 5 full working days a year on site with them and constant review of jobs and certificates.

The less you take apart the better, you more likely to cause a fault. A good tester should be able to use there skill and judgment on just how much needs opening up. The numbers and readings are just a small part of a EICR.
Completely agree.
