The jitter click test measures how quickly you can click using the jitter technique - rapid, small finger/hand vibrations that register repeated clicks. It’s popular in PvP-style games where short bursts of high CPS can matter, but it requires good control and safe pacing.
Jitter clicking typically uses one primary finger on the mouse button while the forearm and hand create a controlled vibration. The goal is speed without losing click accuracy or lifting your finger off the button too far.
Set a comfortable grip, anchor your palm, and keep movements small. Many users improve by focusing on a consistent rhythm rather than forcing maximum tension. Run several attempts and track the average CPS instead of chasing a single peak result.
Jitter clicking can fatigue your hand quickly. If you feel pain, numbness, or sharp strain, stop and rest. Short practice sets, relaxed grip pressure, and breaks between runs help reduce overuse risk.
Mouse switches, debounce settings, and button stiffness can affect how many clicks register. A responsive mouse can help, but technique is the bigger driver of consistent results.
