I just discharge them at 35-40 amps and charge them right back up with zero cooldown. I check the battery temp during discharge. The pack actually cools down when charging. I do one more cycle, but this time charge them at 20A and check the resistance of each cell. Now the pack is ready for the test.

The rest I would do the same as what you have described.
