Free typing test

Type the text above to measure speed and accuracy. Words per minute count characters marked correct, with five characters treated as one word. Accuracy is the share of counted characters that are correct, so incorrect and extra keystrokes lower it. A faster score with more mistakes is a different result from a slower, cleaner one.

Use the same time or word length when you compare two runs. Personalized Typing Practice shows how a result can point to a letter or letter pair, a short focused drill, and a later test you can compare. WPM and accuracy walks through the calculations.
