All typing tests
Every typing test on whytyping, from a 15-second burst to a five-minute run. Each one starts on your first keystroke, needs no account, and ends with your speed, accuracy and the keys that cost you most.
Pick by what you want to measure. A 1-minute typing test gives the number most people compare. Word count tests hold the amount of text steady. The sentence, quote and punctuation tests bring in capitals, marks and longer words, which is closer to everyday writing. Results from every test feed the same stats page, streak and personal bests, kept per test so a 15-second best is never compared with a five-minute one.

The clock runs for a fixed time and the words never run out. Short tests show your burst speed; long ones show whether you can hold it.
