The CPS test, and how to click faster

What this tool does

The CPS Test measures how many times you can click in a set window — 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 seconds. The timer starts on your first click, counts every click live, and shows your clicks per second the moment time runs out, along with your best score of the session. It all runs in your browser.

How CPS is calculated

Clicks per second is just total clicks ÷ seconds. Click 35 times in a 5-second test and you score 7 CPS. Shorter tests favour explosive bursts; longer tests reward stamina and consistency.

What is a good score?

• 3–5 CPS — typical everyday clicking.
• 6–8 CPS — fast; most regular gamers land here.
• 9–12 CPS — very fast, usually with a technique.
• 12+ CPS — elite burst speed, hard to sustain.

Techniques people use

• Regular clicking — one finger, the sustainable baseline.
• Jitter clicking — tensing your arm to vibrate the finger for rapid clicks. Effective but tiring, and overdoing it can strain your hand.
• Butterfly clicking — alternating two fingers on one button to roughly double the rate.
• Drag clicking — dragging a finger across the button so friction registers many clicks; depends heavily on the mouse.

Take breaks — clicking your hardest for long stretches can cause repetitive-strain pain.
