What is Typing Speed Test?
A typing test measures how fast and how accurately you type. It is used for job applications, for practice and just for fun.
What this tool does
Shows a short passage and times you while you type it. It counts only the characters you typed correctly, turns them into words per minute (five characters count as one word), and shows your accuracy.
How to use it
- Choose how long the test should run.
- Start typing the text shown. The timer starts with your first key.
- Read your speed and accuracy when time is up.
Did you know?
- The average typist manages about 40 words per minute, and professional typists often reach 65 to 75.
- Accuracy matters as much as speed, because corrections slow you down.
