A design support apparatus includes a unit that inputs a user net list created by using hard macro cells excluding test circuits, and a unit that arranges hard macro cells using a frame into which hard macro cells, where timing-converged physical information includes test terminals, and test circuits are embedded as arrangement/wiring information. Moreover, includes a unit that arranges and wires the test circuits using the arrangement/wiring information of the test circuit embedded into the frame, a unit that recognizes arrangement/wiring information where the arrangement/wiring information of the test circuits is removed from arrangement/wiring information obtained by wiring, and a unit outputs a net list of a logic structure.
