It is definitely recording your voice, but not the video. One thing to note is that it is an audio and video call by default. Suffice it to say it is a different service to Skype for Business. Just like in Skype for Business, your greeted with a friendly voice that asks you to record a message after the beep. Which is so new it doesn’t have a description of what it can do. This places a call to a bot called Teams Echo. Last week it was the Announcement feature which I blogged about. As Teams is in constant development, I often find something. I look around the Teams client often to see if I can spot anything new. I had a look and I definitely have that too. I’ve seen a few tweets about there being a speaker volume slider and a microphone sound meter in the device settings of an active call. And I have definitely missed having the service there. I moved to Teams Only mode a few months ago. Until today, Teams didn’t have this facility. To say that the audio test service is ubiquitous to Skype for Business and even Consumer Skype is an understatement. Just to show that its possible, but also to give the audience a first glimpse of a call and the controls. I also use it in demo’s of Skype for Business or end user training. I do this whether or not I have noise cancelling tech in my headset or endpoint.
I also use it when I’m in an unfamiliar area with a lot of noise and want to hear how my surroundings will sound on the call. But also to hear how I might sound to people I speak to while using the device. To test it is actually working for a start. Thousands is probably more or less accurate. I couldn’t even tell you how many times I’ve used the audio test service over the last 10+ years working with Microsoft UC. “If you like what you’ve heard, you’re all set. Then the service plays back your recording for you to listen to. You have a relatively short window to record something. “To check your call quality, record a short message after the tone. You’re greeted with a recording which says…
When you click the button, it places a call to an auto answer service in Skype for Business Server and Online. However you get to it, you can check call quality in Skype for Business. Now I think it only exists on the popup menu for devices and forwarding in the lower left. First it was in the device settings page with a button. I just found a new feature in Microsoft Teams that is definitely share worthy! You now have the ability to place a test call in Microsoft Teams! BackgroundĪnyone that has been using Skype for Business or Lync before it or even OCS before that knows about the ability to place a test call in the client.
