CPS Test

Is my butterfly clicking method effective on the standard CPS Test?

Yes, butterfly clicking works perfectly well on a standard CPS Test. The test simply measures how many clicks register per second, regardless of technique. As long as your mouse can detect rapid alternating inputs from both fingers, the CPS Test will reflect your speed accurately. It's a good way to see how your butterfly clicking stacks up against more basic methods like single-finger clicking.

Why is my score different here compared to a dedicated Butterfly Click Test?

A standard CPS Test does not adjust for the unique rhythm of butterfly clicking—it just counts total clicks within the time limit. A dedicated Butterfly Click Test, however, may emphasize sustained rhythm, finger alternation, or slightly different timing conditions. That's why your score might be lower or higher depending on the format. The difference usually comes down to how the test environment aligns with your clicking style.

Should I measure my skill improvement with this test or a dedicated one?
