Typing Speed Test

Type the generated passage for 60 seconds. The workspace shows live WPM, raw WPM, accuracy, character count, and errors, then saves your best result locally when you choose to.

About this test

How the score is calculated

WPM uses the standard five character word: correct characters divided by five, then divided by time in minutes. Raw WPM counts inserted characters including errors and retyped characters, but not Backspace or modifier keys alone. Accuracy is correct characters remaining divided by that count plus accumulated errors.

What a 60 second test tells you

A one-minute run is a short snapshot of this passage and input method. Repeat under the same conditions and compare accuracy as well as speed; it is not a validated estimate of everyday work.

What stays local

The passage and your typing are processed only in this tab. No account, no server, and no analytics payload containing typed content are used.

Run a useful comparison

Use the same passage type, duration, device and input method for each comparison. Finish one ordinary run before trying to beat it, and record accuracy beside WPM. A single unusually fast attempt is a personal result, not a representative benchmark.

Calculate WPM and accuracy from a worked correction example, or compare three scores from your own setup.

How these tools measure results and their limitations

Is this typing test free?

Yes. The test runs in your browser and does not require an account or payment.

What is a standard word in WPM?

This site uses the standard five character word, including spaces and punctuation, when calculating WPM.

How is accuracy calculated?

Accuracy is correct characters remaining divided by correct characters remaining plus accumulated incorrect characters, multiplied by 100. Deleting a mistake does not remove its error count.

Does the typing test work on mobile devices?

The text field accepts supported text input methods, including touch keyboards. Treat touch typing and physical keyboard typing as separate tasks. Autocorrection, suggestions and composition can affect the entered text; this score does not test physical keys.

Can I see my mistake details after the test?

Results show WPM, raw WPM, accuracy and an error count. They do not provide a full per-key mistake history or diagnose which physical keys are weak.
