Abstract

A method for mobile call testing is provided. The method involves initiating at a test-control module a test call to a mobile unit, and detecting at a ring-detecting module, via a contactless coupling to the mobile unit, whether the mobile unit rings in response to the test call from the test-control module. Further, the method then involves providing a ring indication from the ring-detecting module to the test-control module when a mobile ring is detected in response to the test call. In one example, the contactless coupling is an acoustic coupling.
