I mean, you could literally do all of that, what’s stopping you just getting building control down to have a look at it, telling them your plans, then getting them back to sign it off once completed? That’s perfectly legal AFAIK.
I’ve never done it via building control, but I’d assume you’d need a schedule of test results.
I have previously. You need to notify Building Control at local council and pay a fee. You can then do the work and they will send someone to test it at completion.
It is well worth photographing the progress to show hidden work. If you can present them full test results they will love you but still test the install. They sign it off after all, I wouldn't accept a sheet of paper for proof.
I still have to test for the company even though I trust my colleagues to wire it up correctly.
