Answer: C
The test environment must be controlled and stable to ensure
that development projects are tested in a realistic
environment that, as far as possible, mirrors the live
environment. Restricting access to test and development
systems can be achieved easily by normal access control
methods, and the mere separation of the environments will
not provide adequate segregation of duties. The IS auditor
must be aware of the benefits of separating these
environments wherever possible.
