Validating tests
When the internal control director decides that a test should be executed as part of the test plan, he/she validates the test.
*An assessment session is created. This will enable generation of questionnaires to internal controllers for assessment of controls. For more details, see Assessing controls.
Publishing tests
HOPEX IRM enables preparation of tests and only making these public to controllers when planning is completed.
To make a test public:
1. Right-click the icon of the test.
2. Select To Be Published > Publish.
Test status changes to "Published".
Having been published, tests appear in the work program of controllers.
