CPS Test — Click Speed Test.
Measure your click speed in clicks per second (CPS). Click the pad or tap your spacebar as fast as you can before the timer runs out — nothing is uploaded.
Pick a duration below, then click the pad or hit any key as fast as you can — the timer starts on your first click and the result pops up when it ends.

Before you start
- Pick your durationShort tests (1–5s) show your burst speed; longer ones (10–100s) show how well you hold the pace as your hand tires.
- Click or pressClick anywhere on the pad, or focus it and tap your spacebar — both count, so you can test a mouse button or a key.
- The timer starts on your first clickNothing runs until you begin, so take your position first, then go all-in the moment you click.
- Warm up your handA few practice runs loosen your finger and steady your rhythm — most people gain 1–2 CPS just from warming up.
How to test your click speed
- 1Choose a durationTap a preset — 5 seconds is the most common benchmark; 1 second measures your peak burst.
- 2Start clickingClick the pad (or press a key) as fast as you can. The first input starts the countdown.
- 3Keep the paceWatch the live CPS and time-left readouts and keep going until the timer hits zero.

What is CPS (clicks per second)?
CPS stands for "clicks per second" — the number of times you can click a mouse button, or tap a key, in one second. It's a simple measure of raw input speed that comes from gaming, especially Minecraft PvP, where a faster click rate can mean more hits landed in a fight. A CPS test counts every click over a fixed window (usually 1 to 10 seconds) and divides by the time to get your average rate.
Most people click somewhere between 3 and 6 CPS with normal clicking. Above that, players use techniques like jitter clicking (tensing the arm to vibrate the finger) and butterfly clicking (alternating two fingers) to reach 8–14+ CPS, while drag clicking can spike far higher. This tool counts both mouse clicks on the pad and key presses, so you can test a mouse button or measure your spacebar CPS the same way. Because it reads raw browser input events, treat very high numbers as an estimate — the browser and your hardware both cap what a web page can measure.
When a CPS test helps
Gaming practice
Benchmark and train the click rate you use in Minecraft PvP, clicker games, or any fast-input title.
Comparing techniques
See how much jitter, butterfly, or drag clicking actually adds over your normal click speed.
Testing a mouse or key
Check whether a mouse button (or spacebar) registers every rapid press, or drops some under speed.
Click-speed terms
- CPS
- Clicks per second — total clicks divided by the test time. The core number this tool reports.
- Jitter clicking
- Tensing the forearm so the finger vibrates on the button, pushing click rate to roughly 10–14 CPS.
- Butterfly clicking
- Alternating two fingers on one button to roughly double the clicks a single finger can produce.
- Drag clicking
- Rolling a finger across a textured button so friction registers many clicks in one motion.
- Burst vs sustained
- Burst CPS is your peak over 1–2 seconds; sustained CPS is the lower rate you can hold for longer.
- Spacebar CPS
- The same measure applied to a key instead of a mouse — how many times per second you can tap it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good CPS score?
With normal clicking, 3–6 clicks per second is average and completely fine for everyday use. Around 6–8 CPS is considered fast, and consistently hitting 8 or more usually means you're using a technique like jitter or butterfly clicking. Competitive Minecraft players often average 10–14+ CPS. There's no single "correct" number — it depends on the clicking style you use.
How do I test my spacebar CPS?
Click the test pad once to focus it, then tap your spacebar as fast as you can until the timer ends. This tool counts key presses as clicks, so your result is your spacebar clicks per second. It works with any key, which is handy for measuring the exact key you use for jumping or bunny-hopping in games.
What clicking technique gives the highest CPS?
Normal clicking tops out around 6–7 CPS. Jitter clicking — tensing your forearm so the finger vibrates on the button — can reach 10–14 CPS. Butterfly clicking alternates two fingers on one button for even higher counts, and drag clicking rolls a finger across a textured button to register many clicks at once. Faster techniques trade accuracy and comfort for speed, and some can strain your hand, so build up gradually.
Which test duration should I pick?
Short windows (1–5 seconds) capture your burst speed — the fastest you can go for a moment. Longer windows (10–100 seconds) show your sustainable rate, since fatigue pulls the average down. For comparing against friends or leaderboards, the 5-second and 10-second tests are the most common.
Is a higher CPS actually better for gaming?
In some games a faster click rate helps — for example landing more hits in a melee exchange — which is why CPS matters in Minecraft PvP. But raw speed isn't everything: accuracy, aim, and game-specific mechanics usually matter more, and many games or servers cap or ignore clicks beyond a certain rate. Treat CPS as one fun benchmark of finger speed, not a guarantee of winning.
