    Yes, in so far as substantive tests are not the same as tests of control. Substantive tests are designed to ensure that the actual numbers / amounts shown in the fin stats are correctly shown ( note, not “accurately shown” ) within material acceptance parameters.
    Tests of control are designed to try to confirm the reliability of the control features within internal control systems and accounting systems
