Typing Speed Test
Choose a duration and select Start test, then type the displayed sentence. Matching a prompt advances to another. Results are calculated locally and disappear when you leave.
A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Choose a 30, 60, or 120 second test and select Start; the clock starts immediately.
- Type the prompt; an exact match displays another sentence.
- Review remaining time, accuracy and WPM for the latest input; statistics are not cumulative across the session.
Latest-input measurement
Statistics are recalculated on each input. Correct count compares Unicode code points by position; the denominator is the latest input length in UTF-16 code units. Accuracy is correct count divided by that length, as a percentage. WPM uses correct count only.
Local timer
The timer starts on Start and stops at the selected duration. Matching a prompt displays another sentence rather than ending the test. Input, timer and results are not uploaded or persisted.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common questions
How is WPM calculated?
WPM = matching count in the latest input ÷ 5 ÷ elapsed minutes since Start. If elapsed time is zero, WPM is 0.
Does an incorrect character count?
It counts in the input-length denominator but not in correct count or WPM. Statistics do not accumulate completed prompts.
