Most people think these tenses dont exist in Turkish, in fact, they do but they are given under the title of Future tense! So some people think Turkish is not adequate in expressing some actions. I think these two tenses should be separated from the Future tense and they should be counted as two different tenses.

Future continuous tense
Gidiyor olacağım: I will be going

Future Perfect Tense
Gitmiş olacağım: I will have gone.

And separating them could make learning easier for Turkish learners too.
What do you think?

And it is "I will have gone". Look here
By the way, "I would have gone" is 3rd type conditional sentence. Look here
