Abstract
A cutting apparatus includes a cut mechanism configured to cut a workpiece; and a control device configured to: judge whether or not each of plural patterns to be cut by the cut mechanism is a test pattern used for evaluating a cut quality of the workpiece cut by the cut mechanism; determine a cut sequence, the cut sequence indicating a sequence in which the plural patterns are cut from the workpiece by the cut mechanism, the cut sequence being determined so that a pattern judged as the test pattern is cut before a normal pattern judged to not be the test pattern; and control the cut mechanism to cut the plural patterns from the workpiece according to the cut sequence.
