It was some years ago and it was labelled a "failed" test point, so I don't have any notes to look up - although I'm sure something's tucked away in a file still at my formal employer.
Either we were at target AoA and accelerating to condition, or we were on speed condition and pitching the wing up onto AoA conditon. I honestly couldn't tell tell you which now.
It seemed, so far as we could tell, to leave the ground with all four wheels at once, pitching very slightly nose-up.
