Drag one finger along the mouse button over the box, and read how many clicks each stroke made.

The round to quote. Stroke, lift and stroke again for five seconds from your first click. The score is clicks per second over the whole five seconds, and Strokes lists the clicks each stroke made. A drag best set on the CPS test shows here too.

Every click or tap in 5 seconds counts. A key press counts too. The result is clicks per second, with the shortest and the median gap and the clicks in each stroke (a pause over 150 ms starts a new one). Stop if it hurts.
This drag click test counts every click the browser receives while a fingertip slides along the mouse button. Five seconds give clicks per second and the gaps between clicks in ms. Other rounds take one stroke or the right button.

How to drag click in this test
1. Rest a dry fingertip on the back of the left button, with the pointer over the box.
2. Slide it forwards with soft, even pressure. Your first click starts the clock.
3. Lift, go back and stroke again until the five seconds end.
4. Read Strokes when time is up: the clicks in each stroke and the most from one.
Keep the pointer inside the box while you stroke: a press that lands outside it is not counted.
One click from a whole stroke? Try a lighter touch and a dry, clean button before you blame the mouse.
Questions and answers
What is drag clicking?
Drag clicking, also written dragclicking, is rubbing a fingertip along a mouse button so that the vibration makes the mouse record a very high rate of clicks. One stroke can register as many clicks, which is why this page reads clicks per stroke.
How does the drag clicking test tell one stroke from the next?
By the pauses. A gap of more than 150 ms between two clicks starts a new stroke. That figure is our own starting value, not a standard: change it in the field A new stroke after and the same run is regrouped.
What does the drag click CPS test measure?
It is a drag clicking speed test: the clicks the browser counted, divided by the seconds of the round, with the time between strokes included. For the pace of the clicks themselves, divide 1,000 by the median gap in ms that Gaps shows.
Does a mouse drag click work on every mouse?
Not always: it relies on the mouse's hardware. Electronics often wait for switch contacts to settle before accepting a press, called debouncing; our own explanation is that a long wait can merge a stroke's presses. One drag stroke, not saved shows how many clicks arrive.

Learn the stroke 3
One drag stroke, not savedLay a dry fingertip on the back of the button, keep the pointer over the box and slide the finger forwards with soft, even pressure. Three seconds, nothing stored. The Strokes row shows how many clicks that one stroke made. Stop if it hurts.
One drag stroke, right button, not savedThe same single stroke on the right button. Only right-button presses count, and the box holds back the menu a right click would open. A finger on a phone cannot press that button, so this round needs a mouse.
Practice strokes, ten seconds, not savedTen seconds to try one change at a time: lighter pressure, a flatter finger, a slower slide. Nothing is stored. The Strokes row lists the clicks from each stroke in order, so you can see which change gave a stroke more clicks.

Clicks per stroke 3
Another finger or another mouse, three secondsRepeat the separate-strokes round with a different finger, a freshly wiped button or a second mouse. The Side by side row sets this run beside your best on that round, in clicks per second, so you can see which one catches better.
One-second drag burstOne second from the first click, room for a single stroke. Over one second the clicks per second equal the clicks counted, so the score is a whole number. Take it several times: one lucky stroke proves little.
Separate drag strokes, three secondsMake two or three strokes and lift the finger clearly between them. A pause of more than 150 ms between clicks ends a stroke; that figure is this site's own and can be changed in the field A new stroke after. Watch Most from one stroke.
Chained strokes 4
Drag strokes, five secondsThe round to quote. Stroke, lift and stroke again for five seconds from your first click. The score is clicks per second over the whole five seconds, and Strokes lists the clicks each stroke made. A drag best set on the CPS test shows here too.
Drag strokes, right button, five secondsFive seconds of strokes on the right button, with a best of its own. The two buttons of one mouse need not catch alike, so set this beside your left-button score before you decide which finger to train.
Drag strokes, right button, ten seconds in two halvesThe ten-second round on the right button: chained strokes, the clicks of each half side by side and the clicks in every stroke. A press of the left button is not counted here, and the page says so.
Drag strokes, ten seconds in two halvesTen seconds of chained strokes. The Halves row puts the clicks of the first five seconds beside those of the last five, so you can see whether your strokes catch as well at the end as at the start. Stop if it hurts.
Plain clicks to compare 2
Plain clicks, five secondsOrdinary one-finger clicking for five seconds, the figure to set your drag score against. The Side by side row puts this run next to your best five seconds of strokes. A five-second best from the CPS test shows here, because both pages keep it in one place.
Plain clicks, right button, five secondsOrdinary clicking on the right button for five seconds. It is set beside your best right-button strokes, and it shares its history with the right-button five-second round of the CPS test, so that best is set only once.
How this list was compiled: Rounds written for this page. In every round the clock starts on the first click and a held button counts once; the Gaps, Strokes, Halves and Side by side rows are worked out from the times of your own presses. What drag clicking is, its closed-up spelling and how a stroke is made follow the Wiktionary entry https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/drag_click: the verb is defined there as causing a mouse to register clicks at a very high rate by rubbing it with a finger to create a vibration, the noun as an instance that includes multiple individual clicks, and the alternative form as dragclick; its quotations describe a finger dragged softly along the button from back to front, without excessive pressure, and a technique that relies on hardware. Contact bounce, and the settling wait called debouncing, follow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch#Contact_bounce. That a long wait can merge the presses of one stroke, and that a dry, clean button catches better, are this page's own explanations and are in neither source. Button names follow https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MouseEvent/button: the main button is usually the left one and the secondary button usually the right one, and a mouse set up for the left hand may have them swapped. All checked 2026-10-06. The 150 ms pause that starts a new stroke is this site's own starting value and not a standard, which is why the page lets you change it. The sums are this page's arithmetic: over one second the clicks per second equal the clicks counted, and 1,000 ms divided by a gap gives clicks a second. No click rate is called normal, fast or slow, nobody is ranked, and no speed, average or record on this page comes from another site. Licence: own work
