Accuracy
Thirty seconds, one target at a time, three target sizes. Both halves of aiming are reported, because speed without accuracy and accuracy without speed are each easy to fake.

The measurement
What the numbers mean
Time-to-target alone rewards spraying clicks in the target's general direction. Accuracy alone rewards moving slowly and never missing. Neither is aim, and a tool that reports only one will happily tell you that you are good at it.
The combined score multiplies targets per minute by accuracy, which is the simplest honest way to make the two trade off. Two rounds are only comparable at the same target size, so the size is fixed for the whole round.
Barely at all, and that is worth knowing. Click speed is a sustained rate from a stationary hand; aim is a movement task where the click is the easy part. A high CPM does not make you accurate, and the fastest clickers here are often unremarkable on this page.
What the two do share is the switch. A mouse with a long debounce window costs you both a click rate and a fast follow-up shot, which is why the same hardware notes apply to both tools.
The bench
Every tool on the bench
One instrument per input, all on the same clock. A rate is only comparable against the same tool and the same interval.

Questions
Asked of the chronometer
Targets per minute multiplied by your accuracy as a fraction. Forty targets a minute at 90 per cent accuracy scores 36. That is the simplest honest way to make speed and precision trade against each other rather than letting you optimise one and ignore the other.
Whichever you intend to keep using. Scores are only comparable at the same size, so pick one and stay on it — large to warm up, small when you actually want to know. The size is fixed for a whole round for this reason.
No. What matters is that the same hand movement always turns the same amount, which is a question of consistency rather than of the number being large. A player who never changes a 400 DPI setup will out-aim one who keeps adjusting a 3,200 DPI one.
