Abstract

A call recording test suite comprising a call recording test manager stored and operating on a network-connected computing device and a test database, wherein the call recording test manager connects over a network to a call recording system and verifies the existence of an expected call recording and stores the results of the query in the database, and a method for call recording testing for a specific call recording, and a method for call recording testing using a synthetic test call.

Claims (19)

1. A contact center call recording test system, comprising:

a contact center call recorder comprising a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operable on the processor, wherein the plurality of programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to record phone calls placed to a contact center in a call recording database (CRDB);

a text to speech (TTS) engine that generates audible interaction prompts from text input;

an automated speech recognition (ASR) engine that converts an audio recording to text;

a synthetic call generator comprising a plurality of programming instructions stored in a memory and operating on a processor of a network-connected computing device and configured to:

receive instructions from a call recording test manager to place a phone call to the call center;

receive text input from the call recording test manager to be used in placing the phone call to the call center;

generate audible interaction prompts from the text input using the TTS engine;

place a phone call to the contact center using the instructions received from the call recording test manager and the audible interaction prompts generated by the TTS engine; and

a call recording test manager comprising a plurality of programming instructions stored in a memory and operating on a processor of a network-connected computing device, wherein the plurality of programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:

instruct the synthetic call generator to place a phone call to the contact center;

provide text input to the synthetic call generator for use in placing the phone call;

record the start and stop times of the phone call placed by the synthetic call generator to the call center;

request from the contact center identification information for the phone call placed by the synthetic call generator and recorded in the CRDB;

retrieve the recording of the phone call from the CRDB using the identification information;

confirm accuracy and quality of the recording of the phone call by:

determining a length of the recording of the phone call and comparing the length to the start and stop times of the phone call as recorded by the call recording test manager; and

converting the recording of the phone call to text output using the ASR engine and comparing the resulting text output to the text input provided to the synthetic call generator; and

analyzing an audio quality of the recording by comparing it to a pre-determined audio quality standard.
