I just use a torque wrench no technique really just try to get a full revolution without having the wrench click. You'll notice the numbers drop the more you spin it over as the rings break in a bit. If the engine sits a while torque will go up until everything gets oil over it again. Having the real seal in can effect numbers quite a bit so I don't check it with the seal. I don't know if theres a universal standard on how to do this cause I can fudge numbers if I want by breaking the static friction.
