Over here you are required to show proficiency in dealing with the loss of an engine on takeoff. In addition you must show a missed approach with one engine inop. You must also complete a landing with 50% of the powerplants inop. And there is no partial credit, if it is a three engine plane you do a single engine landing. On a 747 or DC-8 you do a two engine landing.

During training you might cover the loss of all engines but it's not a checkride event.
Likewise with the L1011, in all jurisdictions in which I have flown the airplane in the last 29 years.

Precisely as described above.
