What is the CPS Test?
A CPS test measures how fast you can click. You click or tap a box as quickly as you can for a set time, and the tool divides your clicks by the seconds to give clicks per second (CPS). It is popular with gamers who want to check or train their clicking speed, and it is also a quick way to check that a mouse button registers every click.
Pick a test length, then click the big box. The timer starts on your first click, so you never lose time getting ready. While you click you see the count, your live CPS and the time left. When the time is up you get your final score, and your best score for each length is kept in this browser. Spacebar mode works the same way with the space key.

Features
Six test lengths
Choose 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 seconds. Short tests show your burst speed; longer ones show how well you keep it up.
Timer starts on your first click
There is no countdown to react to. The test begins the moment you click, and clicks after the time is up are ignored.
Live count and CPS
The click count, current clicks per second and time left update as you go.
Best score saved
Your best CPS for each length and mode is stored in your browser, so you can try to beat it later. Nothing is sent to a server.
Spacebar mode
Switch to Spacebar to test how fast you can press the space key. Holding the key down counts as one press.
Popular uses
Gaming practice
Check and train your clicking speed for games where fast clicking matters.
Comparing click techniques
Try normal clicking, jitter clicking or butterfly clicking and see which gives you a higher CPS.
Testing a mouse
If your score drops for no reason, or clicks seem to go missing, the mouse button may be wearing out. Repeat the test to compare.
A quick challenge
Set a time and compare scores with friends on the same device.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good CPS?
Most people score somewhere around 5 to 8 clicks per second with normal clicking. Scores above 10 usually come from special techniques such as jitter or butterfly clicking.
How is CPS calculated?
Your total clicks are divided by the length of the test. For example, 42 clicks in a 5-second test is 8.4 CPS.
Does pressing Enter or Space count in mouse mode?
No. In mouse mode only real clicks and taps count, so keyboard presses on the box are ignored. Use Spacebar mode to test the space key.
Where is my best score saved?
In your browser's local storage on this device. It is not uploaded, and clearing your browser data removes it.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Tap the box with one or more fingers. The page is set so fast taps don't zoom the screen.
