Hi, Please recommend an appropriate tool for performance testing Lync 2013 with video\audio calling scenarios. Is "Lync Server 2013 Stress and Performance Tool " suited for testing such a scenario. Thanks much!

Hi Sajeel, Thanks. Idea is to test and monitor in a pre-prod environment. For monitoring we can use Lync KHI. But do you have any suggestions on generating load in Pre-prod for monitoring. One critical scenario from a business perspective is to check the video and audio call from lync. Thanks again!

Yes, you can use Lync Server 2013 Stress Testing tool for load generation.
The LSS can simulate all Lync Server workloads or just specific workloads, such as instant messaging (IM) and presence, application sharing, audio conferencing, and mobility, with a particular scale target.
