Advantages of Functional Points (F.P)

Advantages of Functional Points (F.P)

1. Size of software delivered is measured independently of Language, technology, and tools.
2. Functional Points F.P are directly estimated from requirements, before design and coding
3. We get an estimate of SW size even before major design or coding happens (early phases)
4. Any change in requirements can be easily reflected in Functional Points FP count.
5. Useful even for those users without technical expertise.
6. F.P. is biased on the external structure of the software to develop.
