Mouse Click Speed Test (CPS Test)
Pick a duration, then click the box as fast as you can. Your first click starts the timer, and CPS is total clicks divided by the seconds.

Pick a duration and click the box as fast as you can. Your first click starts the timer. When time runs out the test shows your clicks per second, the total, the fastest and average gap between clicks, and your best score for that duration. For a second after the timer ends, clicks are ignored so a late click does not wipe your result.
How the Score Is Worked Out
Example: 52 clicks in a 5-second test is 52 ÷ 5 = 10.40 CPS. The average gap is the time between your first and last click divided by the number of gaps, so 52 clicks spread over 4.9 seconds give an average gap of 4,900 ÷ 51 ≈ 96 ms. The test counts the moment the button goes down rather than the full click, so very fast clicking is not slowed by the release.
Choosing a Duration
- 1 second: a single burst. Results vary a lot from try to try.
- 5 and 10 seconds: the lengths most CPS tests offer, so scores are easiest to compare.
- 15 and 30 seconds: show whether you can hold your pace.
- 60 seconds: an endurance test.
Getting a Fair Result
- Use the same mouse and duration when comparing scores.
- A touchpad tap or a phone screen works, but the score is not comparable with a mouse.
- Turn off auto-clickers or macro buttons; they make the result meaningless.
- Rest between tries. A tired hand scores lower on the next run.
If clicks seem to go missing or double up, test the switch with the mouse test. For gaming speed beyond clicking, the APM test counts actions per minute across keys and buttons.
CPS Test Questions
How is CPS calculated?
Total clicks divided by the test length in seconds. 52 clicks in a 5-second test is 10.40 CPS. The first click starts the timer and counts as click one.
Which duration should I use?
5 and 10 seconds are the usual choices for comparing scores. 1 second shows a burst, and 30 or 60 seconds show how long you can keep the pace before your hand tires.
What is a good CPS?
There is no official scale, and scores depend on the clicking method and the test length. Compare your own scores at the same duration over time; the test keeps your best for each duration on this device.
What are jitter clicking and butterfly clicking?
Jitter clicking tenses the forearm so the finger vibrates on the button. Butterfly clicking alternates two fingers on one button. Both raise CPS. Some game servers limit them, so check the rules where you play.
Why does my score drop on longer tests?
Fatigue. Very few people hold their 5-second pace for a full minute.
Can this tell if my mouse double-clicks?
Not reliably, because fast clicking produces short gaps on purpose. Use the mouse test, which flags presses closer together than a limit you choose.
Are my scores saved?
Your best score per duration is kept in this browser's local storage on your device. Nothing is sent to a server.
