How to use it: press START TEST, then click inside the box as fast as you can for 10 seconds. Your clicks per second, total clicks and animal rank appear when the timer reaches 10.
The 10 second click test measures how many times you can click a mouse button in 10 seconds. Your total clicks are divided by 10 to give your clicks per second (CPS), so 75 clicks in 10 seconds is 7.5 CPS and the Buffalo rank. Ten seconds is long enough to show more than a burst, and short enough to repeat.
This click speed test for 10 seconds runs in your browser with nothing to install and no account. Counting happens on your own device, so a slow connection cannot cost you clicks once the page has loaded. Your last five 10 second results are kept in this browser only. Some people call it the ten second click test or the CPS test 10 seconds version; it is the same thing.
The clock starts on the button, not on your first click, so have your finger in place before you press START. Clicks that land outside the box are lost. If your mouse slides when you click hard, keep the pointer near the middle of the box.
A 10 sec click test has one job: count every click in the box until the timer stops.
The formula is CPS = total clicks ÷ 10. Every extra click adds exactly 0.1 CPS, so 82 clicks is 8.2 CPS and 83 clicks is 8.3 CPS. The final result always uses the full 10 seconds, even if you stopped clicking before the end.
While the test runs, the CPS counter divides your clicks by the time that has passed so far. That is why it jumps around in the first second and then settles. If your hand slows down near the end, the final number will be lower than the live figure you saw at five seconds.
A click only counts when the button goes down and comes back up with the pointer inside the box. That is how browsers define a click event, so holding the button down scores nothing until you let go. Clicks made after the timer reaches 10 are ignored, and clicks on the result window are not added to your score.
Your CPS gives you one of nine animal ranks. The ranks are the same across the timed click tests on Click Tester; this table converts them into clicks per 10 seconds so you know exactly what to aim for.
| Rank | CPS range | Clicks in 10 seconds |
|---|---|---|
| Sloth | up to 3.5 | 1 to 35 |
| Turtle | 3.6 to 5.5 | 36 to 55 |
| Panda | 5.6 to 6.6 | 56 to 66 |
| Mouse | 6.7 to 6.9 | 67 to 69 |
| Buffalo | 7.0 to 7.5 | 70 to 75 |
| Rabbit | 7.6 to 8.0 | 76 to 80 |
| Wolf | 8.1 to 8.5 | 81 to 85 |
| Tiger | 8.6 to 9.0 | 86 to 90 |
| Cheetah | over 9.0 | 91 or more |
The steps between ranks are small in the middle of the table. Going from Panda to Buffalo takes only four extra clicks across 10 seconds, so a single good round can move you up two ranks. Once you reach Cheetah, follow the CPS number instead, because 9.2 and 11.5 CPS earn the same animal.
There is no reliable average to compare yourself with. No record keeper or study publishes an average for 10 second click tests, and the averages quoted on CPS sites do not say how they were collected. Your own first score is the best starting point, and the rank table gives you the next target.
Fixed targets are more useful than a borrowed average. With normal clicking (one finger, one press per click), 70 clicks makes Buffalo and 81 makes Wolf. To reach 100 clicks, you need to hold 10 CPS for the whole test, which is where jitter clicking and butterfly clicking usually come in.
For a sense of the top end, the Guinness World Records title for the most mouse clicks in one minute is 760 clicks, set in February 2026. Held at that pace, the record holder would make about 127 clicks in 10 seconds. Our page on CPS world records explains that record and the other claims you may see.
You may also see 1,051 clicks in 10 seconds quoted as a record. On RecordSetter that attempt is marked as denied because the site does not accept auto clickers. RecordSetter’s own record for the most mouse clicks in 10 seconds is 402 clicks, made with three mouse buttons, so it cannot be compared with a one button test like this one.
A clicking speed test of 10 seconds balances top speed against staying power. Shorter tests reward a quick burst; longer tests add fatigue. Ten seconds is long enough that a lucky start does not decide your score, and short enough to repeat many times in a practice session.
The same clicking speed gives very different totals depending on the time limit. This table shows what a steady 8 CPS looks like across the timed tests on Click Tester:
| Test | Length | Clicks at a steady 8 CPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1 second CPS test | 1 s | 8 |
| 5 second click test | 5 s | 40 |
| This 10 second test | 10 s | 80 |
| 30 second click test | 30 s | 240 |
| Clicks per minute test | 60 s | 480 |
In practice, few people hold the same pace from the first second to the last, so your CPS usually drops a little as the test gets longer. That is why you should only compare scores from tests of the same length. Use the short tests to find your burst speed and the 30 or 60 second tests to see how much of it you keep.
Clicking 10 seconds flat out is harder than it sounds. The quickest gains come from a steadier grip, lighter presses and short rounds with rests. Change one thing at a time and run the test again to see whether it helped.
Each technique has its own clicker test, all running for 10 seconds, so you can compare them directly:
| Technique | How the clicks happen | Where to practise |
|---|---|---|
| Normal clicking | One finger presses each time | This page |
| Jitter clicking | A tensed arm makes one finger vibrate | Jitter click test |
| Butterfly clicking | Two fingers tap one button in turn | Butterfly click test |
| Drag clicking | Friction makes the button bounce | Drag click test |
Our guide to jitter vs butterfly vs drag clicking compares the three methods. If you want fast clicking for Minecraft fights rather than a test score, read how to click faster for PvP, and check your accuracy with the aim trainer. Fast clicking for long periods can strain your hand and wrist, so stop if you feel pain.
The test is built for a mouse, but other inputs work too. Your score will not match your mouse score, so compare results from the same device.
If your result suddenly jumps or drops, check the mouse before you blame your hand. A worn switch can turn one press into two clicks, which raises your score, or miss presses, which lowers it. The double click test shows whether single presses register as double clicks, and the mouse test checks that every button responds.
Saved results are shared with the butterfly click test, because both tests use the same 10 second engine and the same storage slot in your browser. If you use both pages, your last five saved scores are a mix of the two.
How fast you can click in 10 seconds depends mostly on your technique. With normal clicking, 70 clicks in 10 seconds (7.0 CPS) earns the Buffalo rank and more than 90 clicks earns Cheetah, the top rank. Jitter and butterfly clicking are the usual ways players try to pass 100 clicks.
Your total clicks are divided by 10. For example, 64 clicks gives 6.4 CPS. The test then gives you one of nine animal ranks, from Sloth for up to 3.5 CPS to Cheetah for more than 9 CPS.
Yes. 100 clicks in 10 seconds is 10 CPS, which is above the threshold for the Cheetah rank. Holding that pace for the full 10 seconds with normal clicking is hard, which is why players chasing 100 or more often practise jitter or butterfly clicking.
No. The 10 second timer starts when you press START TEST, and the press on that button does not count. Have your finger ready on the button before you start so you do not lose the first second.
RecordSetter lists 402 clicks in 10 seconds, but that was made with three mouse buttons. The often quoted 1,051 clicks is a denied attempt. The only Guinness World Records title is for one minute: 760 clicks, about 12.7 clicks per second.
Most hands slow down as they tire, and 10 seconds gives fatigue twice as long to pull your average down. A 5 second test mostly measures burst speed, while 10 seconds also measures how well you keep it. Compare each score only with results from the same test length.
Yes. Press START TEST, then press Enter or Space separately for each click. Holding a key down counts only once, so you cannot score by holding a key.

When the timer runs out, the test divides your total clicks by the length of the test to give your clicks per second (CPS), then awards one of nine animal ranks:
| Rank | CPS |
|---|---|
| Sloth | 0 – 3.5 |
| Turtle | 3.6 – 5.5 |
| Panda | 5.6 – 6.6 |
| Mouse | 6.7 – 6.9 |
| Buffalo | 7.0 – 7.5 |
| Rabbit | 7.6 – 8.0 |
| Wolf | 8.1 – 8.5 |
| Tiger | 8.6 – 9.0 |
| Cheetah | 9.1+ |
The timer starts when you press Start, and only clicks inside the click area count. You can also take the test with a keyboard: press Enter or Space on the click area. Your last five results are saved in your own browser, not on our servers.
