Development of Software Size Estimation Application using Function Point Analysis (FPA) Approach with Rapid Application Development (RAD)
Abstract: Software size
estimation has an important role on software development life cycle (SDLC) for
helping developers to focus on their target and give a control on development
process. Estimation needs a method that give high accuracy with minimum result
errors that developers can use it as an approach to the real software size they
built. Function Point Analysis (FPA) is one of many methods that can estimate
the software size. FPA estimate the software size on Function Point that can be
used to count the software line of code (LOC). The research aim is to build a
software to estimate a software size using FPA method. Rapid Application
Development (RAD) is used to develop the software and needs four iteration to
complete the development. On 4th iteration, the Black Box Testing method has
been used to evaluate the program, using 13 datas of a software that have been
completely developed. The result is, mean relative error on the estimation
result for the proposed program is 3,52%.
