Really? I thought compliance tests were more common in these scenarios.

I feel like the focus on the source and object versions leans towards a substantive test, but I can't recall if it's specifically about the library or compiler controls.

I'm a bit confused; I thought compliance tests were more about following regulations, but this seems like it could be a substantive test too.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think it was about program library controls. So maybe it's option A?

I think this might be a compliance test since we're checking if the source and object versions match, but I'm not entirely sure.

Ah, I see what they're getting at now. By selecting a sample of programs, the auditor is performing a compliance test on the program library controls. I'm confident option B is the right answer.

Okay, I've got this. The key is that the auditor is checking if the source and object versions are the same. That sounds like a substantive test of the program library controls to me, so I'll go with option A.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Is it testing the program library controls or the program compiler controls? I'll have to think it through carefully.

This looks like a question on program library controls. I think I'll go with option B - it seems to be testing compliance with those controls.

I bet the auditor is just trying to catch us out with this one. Let's see, B sounds like the way to go. Unless, of course, they're feeling particularly mischievous today.

This is a tricky one! I'm leaning towards B, but D sounds plausible too. Guess I'll have to think it through a bit more.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and D. Verifying the program versions could be considered a substantive test, but it's also checking compliance with library controls.
