Frequently Asked Questions
How does this typing speed test work?
Click the Start Test button and begin typing the displayed text as fast and accurately as you can. The timer starts on your first keystroke. Your words per minute (WPM), accuracy percentage, time taken and errors are calculated and shown in real time.
What is WPM and how is it calculated?
WPM stands for Words Per Minute. It is calculated by dividing the number of correctly typed characters by 5 (the standard word length) and then dividing by the time taken in minutes. Gross WPM includes all typed characters while Net WPM subtracts errors.
How is accuracy measured?
Accuracy is calculated as the percentage of correctly typed characters compared to the total characters typed. Each correct character adds to your accuracy, while errors reduce it.
