Microsoft Teams-What happened to Test Call ?
- Aug 17, 2020
Hi and welcome to the Microsoft Tech Community!
I found a solution from Microsoft themselves here:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/manage-your-call-settings-in-teams-456cb611-3477-496f-b31a-6ab752a7595f
Make a test call
To make a test call, select your profile picture, then Settings > Devices.
Choose Make a test call under Audio devices.
In a test call, you'll see how your mic, speaker, and camera are working. Follow the instructions from Test Call Bot and record a short message. The message will play back for you. After that, you'll get a summary of the test call, and you can go to your device settings to make changes.
Notes:
The test call feature is only available in English for now. Additional languages are coming soon.
We'll delete your test recording immediately after the call. It won't be retained or used by Microsoft.
The test call feature is currently unavailable for Teams on the web.
I hope this helps
Greetings

what idiot decided to get rid of the test call function? It doesn't show any devices in your instructions. Thanks to whatever dumbass who decided to remove the test call function. I wanted to test a call before an interview, but this retarded app has no way to do that.

It doesn't playback the audio sample (or it played it once with 10 tries) and it seems buggy in general. Sometimes I can hear it calling me (the ring tone is there) but there's no way to answer the call and sometimes the whole thing just freezes.
