Design accurate, interactive typing tests that measure speed and precision, all within a secure and customizable environment.
With TestInvite, you can create typing exams that assess real-world skills, from basic transcription to high-speed data entry tasks. Whether your goal is recruitment screening, training certification, or classroom evaluation, our platform makes it easy to build, deliver, and analyze typing tests at scale.
Common in recruitment, education, and training where digital fluency matters, typing tests measure how fast and accurately a candidate can reproduce given text within a set time. Test-takers type a displayed prompt, and the system records their speed (WPM), accuracy (error rate), and an adjusted score for correct entries. As a simple yet effective way to assess digital readiness, the test’s results help identify typing proficiency for roles that require efficient digital communication.
TestInvite offers a ready-to-use typing test for speed and accuracy assessments, or the flexibility to create your own, fully customized version.
Using TestInvite’s online exam maker, building a typing test is both straightforward and adaptable. Simply navigate to the Tests module, start a new test, and assign it a name.
The platform will automatically create the first section and page for you, so you can dive right into adding content. Expand the exam by including as many sections and pages as you need.
Typing questions can be designed around a wide variety of input formats to match the assessment's goals. Just create a text-based input question and enter the related prompt.
You can create typing questions that prompt candidates using:
With built-in support for custom JavaScript functions, you can define exactly how each response should be scored based on accuracy, speed, or any rule you specify.
Using the Function editor under your Organization settings, you can write or generate a JavaScript function with built-in error handling using a try/catch block.
Define your own evaluation logic using an anonymous JavaScript function that receives the test-taker’s typed response. The function must analyze the input, such as comparing it to a reference text, and return a score between -1 and +1. For example, returning 0.8 grants the candidate 80% of the question’s point value.
The interface supports code customization, making it easy for developers or power users to implement advanced evaluation logic. You’re free to create as many functions as you need.
Our AI-Ready and developer-friendly feature unlocks endless possibilities in typing test customization, letting you define what “accuracy” and “performance” really mean for your assessment.
Once your test structure, your question and evaluator function are ready, simply assign the custom function to the typing question.
Customize how your typing test functions and how securely it runs. From pacing controls to anti-cheating measures, TestInvite lets you fine-tune every aspect to match your assessment goals.
