Abstract: An integrated circuit design apparatus includes a macro signal terminal position determination unit that determines temporary arrangement positions of a scan-in terminal and a scan-out terminal of each of a number of macros. The unit updates layout information of an integrated circuit based on the temporary arrangement positions. The apparatus includes an initial scan path route determination unit that updates scan path connection information, such that one of the macros arranged in a closest distance is connected in turn starting with a scan-in external terminal, with reference to the updated layout information and the scan path connection information. The apparatus include a scan path re-routing unit that determines a scan path connection order, such that a scan path total wiring length becomes shortest, with reference to the updated layout information and the updated scan path connection information. This unit updates the scan path connection information based on this determined order.
