Abstract
A software application recreation in a computing environment is provided. One embodiment involves analyzing program execution trace data of a software application, and using the analysis results in recreating an executable version of the software application from data traced at significant points during the software application execution. Recreating an executable version of the software application involves creating white space code to simulate the software application execution timing by replacing business logic code of the software application with white space code in the recreated executable version. The recreated executable version of the software application programmatically behaves essentially similarly to the software application.
