There is provided a computer-implemented method for duplicating an application state, the method including: recording one or more point-in-time characteristics of an original application state of an application, the recording including: parsing underlying code for the application to identify (i) a set of state variables that together define the original application state and (ii) a set of logical breadcrumbs identifying a pre-determined number of past actions that led to the original application state; establishing one or more logical anchor points based on the set of state variables; provisioning memory resources to support a duplicate application state; on the provisioned memory resources, initiating a copy of the application; transferring the one or more point-in-time characteristics to the provisioned memory resources, the transferring including: configuring the copy of the application using the one or more point-in-time characteristics to regenerate the original application state on the copy of the application.
