Water was leaking from upstairs bathroom into the one below.
We ran the shower/tub water, the sink, the toilet. No leak.
The plumber thinks it is because of defective caulk in the
tub. I hope he is right.
It can also be from the plumbing in the wall.

Yep. I had that problem in my previous house. I couldn't find the leak until
one day I decided to look (I had the ceiling torn out already) when SWMBO was
taking a shower.
if caulk does not fix it tear down the cieling and take a look
