Test-CsComputer
The Test-CsComputer
cmdlet verifies the status of the Skype for Business Server services running on the local computer.

This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.
Syntax
Test-CsComputer
[-Report <String>]
[-Verbose]
[<CommonParameters>]
Description
The Test-CsComputer
cmdlet is an example of a Skype for Business Server "synthetic transaction." Synthetic transactions are used in Skype for Business Server to verify that users are able to successfully complete common tasks such as logging on to the system, exchanging instant messages, or making calls to a phone located on the public switched telephone network (PSTN).
These tests can be conducted manually by an administrator, or they can be run automatically by an application such as Microsoft System Center Operations Manager (formerly Microsoft Operations Manager).
The Test-CsComputer
cmdlet, which can be run only on the local computer, verifies the status of all the Skype for Business Server services on that computer.
The cmdlet also checks to see if the appropriate firewall ports have been opened on the computer, and determines whether or not the Active Directory groups created when you installed Skype for Business Server have been added to the corresponding local groups.
For example, the Test-CsComputer
cmdlet will verify that the Active Directory group RTCUniversalUserAdmins has been added to the local Administrators group.
Examples
-------------------------- Example 1 ------------------------
Test-CsComputer -Verbose
The command shown in Example 1 verifies the service activation status for the local computer. The Verbose parameter is included in the command to ensure that the success (or failure) of the operation is fully reported on the screen.
-------------------------- Example 2 ------------------------
Test-CsComputer -Verbose -Report C:\Logs\Computer.html
Example 2 also verifies the service activation status of the local computer. In addition, this command writes detailed information about the activation status to the file C:\Logs\Computer.html. This log is generated by including the Report parameter followed by the full path to the log file where the information should be recorded.
Parameters
-Report
Enables you to specify a file path for the log file created when the cmdlet runs.
