The typing tool (above) records the number of characters and words you can type in a minute and gives you a percentage score to compare your speed with the average score of 187 characters per minute (CPM) The typing test (screenshot shown above) only takes a minute and can be used to learn to touch-type.
Many jobs require a person to type 40 words per minute. It's considered a minimum requirement but obviously good enough to get the job done.
