If you have access to the console you can do many things.
For instance, you can originate test calls.

Tzafrir, thanks for your response and sorry for not being specific.
You raised a very good point about accessing the console.

For example, I made a major change to some of the config files and I
waited till everyone in the remote office has gone home.
I then sshed into the Asterisk box to reload the config files. After
that, I wanted to make an inside/outside call to see if the changes did
not mess up anything.
I know I could issue a dial cmd on the console. I will then be able to
see the message on the console but I will not be able to test the
quality of the call.
Is this the normal way to test?

Maybe something in the lines of:
[test]
; need to check the syntax of Monitor...
exten => sound-test,1,Monitor(whatever)
exten => sound-test,2,Wait(300)


Now try:

originate Local/sound-test at test extension 123456 at internal-context

(Assuming you want to test dialing 123456 from a phone that is in
context 'internal-context')

You'll now get local recordings of your calls. At least how they got
passed Asterisk. Not the same as a phone, but tests most of the path.
