For $49.99+S&H I can sell you an FXO/FXS test-cable... just kidding.
Use a regular RJ11 cable to connect one of your FXS ports to the FXO
port you want to test, pick up another FXS and dial the extension... and
you're promptly delivered to the [incoming] context. I test all my FXO
configs using a Sipura FXS port to make it ring. I'd still like that
$50 though :)
Oh, this is a good idea. I guess I didn't think about being able to do that. Excellent!
Thanks!

I have the FXS lines able to call eachother and they can connect out the FXO lines.
I changed the context for the FXS lines to "incoming" so that they would be able to test the setup for incoming calls.
For the incoming context I have: [incoming] exten => s,1,Wait(1) exten => s,2,Answer() exten => s,3,Background(hello2) ; this is the file I need to test the playback of first
And I do a restart. When I pickup one of the FXS handsets, though, I get this from asterisk (running with the -vvvc arg): Starting simple switch on 'Zap/1-1' and that is it.
I know that the context is right because I put a hard-dial of "202" in there and when I dialed it, it would connect to that extension (Zap/2)
and if I dialed anything else I would get fast busy.
I have checked and the line right after the last exten above is another context marker.
The asterisk output also shows the s extensions being loaded under the correct context when I do a reload after the restart (to see just the messages from the contexts being loaded).
What am I missing to get the FXS lines, in the context "incoming", to do the wait/answer/background?
Thanks!
For some reason, the s extension is not being executed for the FXS lines. I changed their default context back to "internal" and added "exten => s,1,Background(hello2)" to the internal context, thinking that when I pick up the handset I will get the hello2 audio file played as it waits for me to enter digits.
But the audio file is not played... I must be missing an essential concept here...
