How the typing speed test works
- Choose a duration and begin typing the displayed passage.
- Correct and incorrect characters are highlighted while speed and accuracy update.
- Review the final result when time expires or the passage is complete.
Net WPM here is based on correctly matched characters: correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ elapsed minutes. Accuracy is correct typed characters ÷ all typed characters × 100. This prevents fast but incorrect keystrokes from inflating the reported speed.
FAQ
How is words per minute calculated?
Correctly typed characters are divided by five to estimate words, then divided by elapsed minutes. Five characters per word is the standard typing-test convention.
How is typing accuracy calculated?
Accuracy is the percentage of typed characters that match the passage at the same position. Incorrect characters reduce accuracy immediately.
When does the timer start?
The timer starts with your first typed character, so time spent reading the passage before typing does not reduce your score.
Which test duration should I use?
A 60-second test is a useful general benchmark. Thirty seconds is convenient for practice, while two minutes gives a steadier measure of sustained speed.
Are my results saved or uploaded?
No. Passages, keystrokes, and results remain in the current browser tab and reset when the page reloads.
