There is a new building with twisted pair cables (network and telephone), a tester designed for RJ- and BNC connectors. The cords will be connected to the appropriate outlets in the future, but for now they need to be checked for breaks. Is there an option other than how to compress everything and reduce it to a regular check, and then bite off all the connectors?

Make a short patch cord with RJ on one side and 8 crocodiles on the other.

Should each wire in the cable be ringed with an ordinary tester?

It seems to me that we can consider such a solution: crimp a short patch cord, plug it into an untwisted socket and a tester, and shoot the cable under test with a patcher (“ clicker ”) directly on weight to the socket. It will be faster than using a conventional multitester and more economical than normal crimping of connectors, but in terms of labor costs it will approach the breeding of all sockets, unless you have to run after the latter and screw them to the wall.

In the SCS construction standards, the cable ends at sockets and patch panels, and there is RJ-45 here and there. If the cable was pulled in accordance with the requirements for laying the cable and the cable is not cheap China - calmly terminate - there should be no breaks. In any case, you can protect the outlet several times, the connector only once, and this is much longer - extra, expensive empty work. For 50 km of the cable laid and designed by me, the breaks were only the fault of the builders.

You can “ring” in the old fashioned way with a light bulb and a battery, for example, like this:
connect wires to the light bulb + - to the light bulb and one thing to the battery, at the output 2 wires - the circuit is open. And so we call the wires with this household tester, unfortunately my handicraft dialer did not survive, otherwise I would have posted pictures and a diagram. By the way (if this work is not one-time), you can assemble the tester yourself, if necessary, I'll lay out the circuit in the evening (now there is no time).
