About Spacebar Speed Testing
How It Works
Press the spacebar as many times as possible within 2 seconds. Your CPS (Clicks Per Second) is calculated by dividing total clicks by test duration.
Improve Your Speed
Practice regularly, maintain good posture, and focus on rhythm rather than force. Consistent practice can significantly improve your clicking speed over time.
Why Test Clicking Speed
Fast clicking is essential for gaming, data entry, and general computer efficiency. Regular testing helps track your progress and identify areas for improvement.
CPS Performance Standards
These are typical CPS ranges for short tests. Professional gamers and speed typists often achieve higher rates with dedicated practice.
Frequently Asked Questions
A good CPS for 2 seconds is typically similar to 1-second peak CPS. With practice, users can maintain 6-9 CPS on average across 2 seconds.
Practice regularly, maintain good hand position, focus on rhythm rather than force, and ensure your keyboard is responsive.
No. Only discrete key presses are counted. Holding the key down will not increase your score; you must press and release repeatedly.
CPS equals total clicks divided by test duration in seconds. For this page: CPS = total clicks ÷ 2.
Yes. Keyboards with lower actuation force and shorter travel (e.g., some mechanical switches) can help you click faster. However, technique and rhythm usually matter more.
2 seconds measures sustained clicking pace rather than just a peak burst. It reduces randomness and gives a more stable CPS compared to ultra-short tests.
This test is designed for keyboards. For mobile devices, consider using our CPS click test or connect a physical keyboard.
