A method of analyzing a cause of abnormality of a wafer processed by plasma in at least any one of two or more process modules disposed in a plasma processing system of a cluster type, the method includes recording information about transfer paths of the processing target from when the wafer is transferred from a shipping container and transferred to at least any one of the two or more process modules to when the processing target is returned to the shipping container, in relation with identification information of the wafer for each processing target; testing a state of the wafer after a plasma process has finished; and analyzing a cause of abnormality based on a result of comparison between recorded informations about transfer paths of the processing target determined to be abnormal and the processing target determined to be normal as a result of the testing. |
