We work with electricity every day, I can't speak for everyone here, but a good electrician will do all this kind of testing with the circuit dead. We know the risks and choose not to work live, I think that says a lot about how quickly and unexpectedly things can go wrong. Any test on a circuit can be done when the circuit is dead, there really isn't any reason to test live unless for a ze/pfc test or rcd test.
