Call Simulator

Recommended Posts

Can I test the code without making actual calls ? Is there any simulator to test the call flows?

The whole testing will become an expensive task if we need to make calls for every change.

 

How do you generally recommend testing?

Call simulators do not test the way hardware plays back the files, detection reliability, hardware response times etc - which is where most of the problems are - so in effect it most often gives a false sense of security - on balance it's probably best to properly test the system just as the caller would be hearing it instead of using a call simulator to just walk through a callflow. It's for those reasons that a call simulator is now pretty low on a priority list...

 

Also in most places around the world local calls are free (or just about free) so it's not a big cost issue for many people. Also many VG systems are running on local PBXs - so a test is just a call from another extension on a PBX - again no cost there...
