Frequently Asked Questions

What is control testing?

Control testing evaluates whether internal controls are designed effectively and operating as intended. It involves selecting samples, examining evidence, and determining if controls prevented or detected errors.

How does AI improve control testing?

AI automates evidence analysis, extracting key attributes from documents like invoices, approvals, and reports. It executes test procedures, identifies exceptions, and generates consistent documentation—reducing manual effort by 60%+.

What types of controls can be tested?

SOX&AUDIT supports testing preventive controls (approvals, access), detective controls (reconciliations, reviews), and IT general controls (change management, access management).

How is sample selection handled?

The platform supports multiple sampling methods including statistical sampling, judgmental sampling, and haphazard sampling. Sample sizes are calculated based on risk level and population characteristics.

Can I customize test procedures?

Yes. While AI generates suggested procedures, you can modify, add, or remove steps. You can also create templates for commonly tested controls.
