Five seconds is the classic benchmark. Click as fast as you can and compare your CPS with other players.
What is the 5 Second CPS Test?
The 5 second CPS test is the most popular click speed benchmark. It is long enough to smooth out a lucky click and short enough that you can stay at full speed the whole time.
Use it to compare scores with friends, to track your progress from day to day, and to warm up before PvP.

How to click faster
Warm up first. Run two or three short tests before going for a record.
Anchor your wrist. Rest it on the desk and click with your finger, not your whole arm.
Try a claw or fingertip grip. Arching your hand lets your finger move faster than a flat palm grip.
Take breaks. Fast clicking strains the wrist and forearm. Stop if it hurts.
Frequently asked questions
How is CPS calculated?
CPS is your total clicks divided by the test length. For example, 70 clicks in 10 seconds is 7 CPS. On this page that is your clicks divided by 5.
When does the timer start?
On your first click inside the box, so you never lose time to a countdown. Clicks after the time runs out are not counted.
Where is my best score saved?
Your best score for each test length and your recent results are saved in your browser on this device. Nothing is sent to a server.
Does it work on phones?
Yes. Taps count as clicks on phones and tablets. Tap scores are usually lower than mouse scores, so compare phone results with other phone results.
