About the CPS Test

CPS stands for clicks per second, a simple measure of how quickly you can click a mouse button or tap a touchscreen. This test runs for 1, 5, or 10 seconds, counts every distinct press inside the click area, and divides the total by the test duration. It is a lighthearted benchmark, not a medical or ergonomic assessment.

How to run the test

Choose a duration, press Start test, then click the large area as rapidly as you can. The timer, click count, and live CPS update while the test is running. When the time expires, the area changes color and the final score is shown. The timer begins immediately after you press Start, so position your hand before starting. Pressing and holding the mouse button does not inflate the score: only the initial press is counted.

Improving your score

Short bursts favor raw click speed, while longer tests reward consistency and endurance. A common technique is to keep the wrist relaxed and use small finger movements rather than large arm swings. Some people alternate between two fingers, and others click with a relaxed, steady rhythm instead of frantic bursts. The best score is saved in your browser's local storage so you can compare later attempts, but it is not uploaded anywhere.

What counts as a good CPS?

Casual users often land between 3 and 6 clicks per second. Experienced gamers may reach 8 to 12 in short bursts, and very high scores depend heavily on the mouse, the browser, and the operating system's input handling. Results vary between devices, so comparing scores across different hardware is not especially meaningful.
