Hi Rob,
you could build a simple Perl or Python script to create incoming calls
using callfiles. We have used such a strategy and it seems to be working.

I'm currently starting development of an add-on to a program designed to be used in a call-centre type environment that will interface very closely with Asterisk - quite possibly to the point that the add-on itself will be a softphone as well.

In order to test this application properly, I find myself needing to generate a constant volume of calls to a queue. I can do this by dialling from the two test extensions I have set up on my system, but it would seem a better way of doing this would be to have an external application randomly generate calls at a certain volume.

My budget is not big - this is a project for a non-profit volunteer organisation I do a lot of work with so I would obviously prefer something open source. The ability to randomly generate caller ID and intermittently suppress caller ID would be a *very* useful addition.

Does anyone know of any software that would fit this bill? If such software doesn't exist, or is beyond my capacity to afford, what other options might I have? My test rig is my home PABX - a very small setup running with three ATAs and two VoIP trunks. It would seem that simulating a trunk would be the best way of doing this, but again, I don't know what is available.

Any help would be gratefully received.
