To establish a baseline during voice load testing, do the following:
1) Create a stable test environment that mimics production.
2) Exercise a tool that places numerous simultaneous calls in this near-production environment.
3) Continue to increase the user load until problems exceed service level requirements.
4) Capture and record this threshold user load. 
5) This threshold becomes the baseline. 
6) When changes are engineered for production, they will first be applied to the test environment.  User load will again be tested to determine how it compares with the baseline.
