Mouse Test: Buttons, Scroll and Clicks

Use this mouse test to check that every button on your mouse works. Click inside the test area and watch the left, right, middle, back and forward buttons light up, scroll the wheel up and down, and double-click to see the speed. The tool counts every click and shows the pointer position, and a five-second click-speed test measures your clicks per second. It runs in your browser, so it also works for trackpads and touch mice. Use it to find a worn button, a double-click fault or a scroll wheel that skips.

Mouse Test

Check every mouse button, the scroll wheel, double-clicks and click speed.

Browsers limit movement events to the screen refresh rate, so this is not the hardware polling rate.

How to use the Mouse Test

  1. Move your mouse over the test area.
  2. Click each button and scroll the wheel; the matching indicator lights up.
  3. Double-click quickly to check for accidental double clicks.
  4. Press Start click test and click as fast as you can for 5 seconds.

Frequently asked questions

How do I test my mouse buttons?

Click inside the test area. Each button lights up when you press it, and the counters show how many times you used each button.

How do I check the scroll wheel?

Scroll up and down over the test area. The up and down counters should rise smoothly with no skipped or reversed steps.

What if one click counts as two?

If a single press registers twice, the switch under that button may be worn. Test it a few times and compare to another mouse.

Does the page show my mouse polling rate?

It shows how many movement events your browser receives per second. Browsers often limit this to the screen refresh rate, so it is not the true hardware polling rate.

Why do the back and forward buttons not work?

Some browsers use those buttons to go back and forward in history. The test blocks that inside the area, but not every browser or mouse allows it.
