typing test
Keyboard proficiency exam
A typing test measures how quickly and accurately someone can type, usually reporting results in words per minute.
Typing tests range from simple drills to formal assessments for employment: I had to pass a typing test to get the receptionist job.
Online versions have become a casual way to compare skills or practice keyboard proficiency.
