How to use Inputest

Choose Full Size or TKL, ANSI or ISO, and the appropriate keycap layout. Click the testing area and press each physical key; held keys light up and released keys remain marked as tested.

Watch Keys tested, Last key, Currently held and Max simultaneous. Optional keys are identified separately and are not required for full completion.

Open Rollover & Ghosting and hold the combinations you normally use. In Chatter Test, repeat presses of the same key and select a threshold appropriate to your investigation.

Press each button inside the Mouse buttons area and compare its counter with your physical presses. Release a button to end its held indication.

Move the pointer inside Mouse movement to draw a path. Use Reset to begin a clean comparison.

Open Scroll Wheel, Double Click, CPS or Polling Rate with the corresponding Start Test control. Close the individual check to return to the workspace.

Choose Scroll Down or Scroll Up, then keep scrolling in that direction inside the marked area. Free Test records either direction without classifying reversals as unexpected.

Read Scroll Up, Scroll Down, Total Events, Last Direction and Reverse Events. The direction ribbon shows recent events; the table retains the latest 100 events, newest first.

Use Pause to stop registration temporarily, Resume to continue, or Reset for a new session. Changing the expected direction starts a fresh test.

Choose Single Click Test and click deliberately once at a time inside the test area. Compare Total Clicks, Possible Double Clicks and Last Interval for each button.

Switch to Click & Hold Test, hold a button steadily, then release it. Watch Hold Duration and Possible Interruptions.

Review Recent Events to understand which input and timing produced a warning. Reset before comparing another mouse or connection.

Move the mouse continuously in circles inside the marked area for 5–10 seconds.

Compare Current Hz, Peak Hz, Total Events and Average Active Hz while keeping the motion reasonably consistent.

Reset and repeat under the same browser, connection and system-load conditions before comparing devices or settings.

Clean the screen gently and choose comfortable brightness. Start the fullscreen test when supported.

Use the left and right arrow keys or the displayed controls to review the available colors and patterns. Inspect different areas at a normal viewing distance.

Exit fullscreen with Escape when finished. Compare a suspicious spot across several colors and normal content.

Press Record and allow microphone access. Wait for the preparation state, then speak at a normal distance and volume.

Watch the waveform and level feedback while recording. Avoid tapping the microphone as a substitute for a normal voice sample.

Press Stop Recording. Play the sample, seek through it, or use Download Recording. Record Again replaces the previous in-page recording.

In STEREO, use Test Left, Test Right and Test Both to compare stereo output. Adjust the shared volume control gently; use Stop to end playback early.

Select SPATIAL, then Start Spatial Test to hear a source travel around the head diagram. Headphones work best; the visual point and direction labels follow the same source position.

Select FREQUENCY. In the current implementation, pressing Bass 100 Hz, Mid 1000 Hz or Treble 4000 Hz immediately plays that preset. Alternatively, adjust the logarithmic 80–8000 Hz slider and press Play Tone. A tone lasts about two seconds; Stop Tone ends it early.

Press Start Camera and allow access. If more than one camera is detected, use Camera Device to choose the intended device.

Leave Resolution on Auto or request a specific size. Read the actual Resolution, Reported FPS, Actual FPS and Aspect ratio after the stream updates.

Use the fullscreen control for a larger view, or Take Photo for a snapshot. Click the thumbnail to enlarge it, Download Photo to save it, or Delete to remove it. Take Photo replaces the previous image only after a new capture succeeds.

Press Stop Camera when finished. Hiding the tab also stops capture; press Start Camera yourself when you return.

Click the test area or press Space to begin. Wait through the red WAIT FOR GREEN state; each attempt uses a fresh random delay from 1.5 to 5 seconds.

When the area turns green and says CLICK!, click or press Space promptly. An early press shows Too Early and does not count as a successful attempt.

Continue through five valid attempts. Review the average, best and last attempt and the ordered five-attempt chart. Start New Series resets the session.

Choose 1, 5, 10 or 30 seconds before starting. Click the marked area with the left mouse button; the first click starts the timed run.

Continue inside the area until the run ends. Compare the click total, elapsed time and clicks per second.

For runs of five seconds or longer, use the graph to see how pace changed during the session. Reset or choose another duration for a new attempt.

Place the browser on the display you want to observe, keep the tab visible and reduce background load.

Press Start Test and wait for warmup plus at least three seconds of sampling. Do not switch tabs during measurement.

Read Estimated Refresh Rate, Frame interval, Stability and any cadence warnings. Use Run Test Again to compare another run under the same conditions.
