About the 60% Keyboard Test

The 60% Keyboard Test tests a compact 60% or 65% keyboard: the alphanumeric block, modifiers and arrows, without the function row or number pad. It runs as plain JavaScript inside the page, which means there is no upload step, no queue and no size limit imposed by a server — the only limit is your own device.

What people use it for

  • Testing a compact mechanical keyboard after a build.
  • Checking that the arrow cluster on a 65% board registers.
On a true 60% board the arrow keys live on a function layer, and layer keys are resolved inside the keyboard itself — so they arrive here as ordinary arrow presses.

Frequently asked questions

Why does a key light up in the wrong place?
The test reads the physical key position, not the printed letter, so a non-QWERTY layout will light the key that sits in that position on a US keyboard. That is correct behaviour — it means the test works the same on AZERTY, QWERTZ and Dvorak.
Some keys do nothing at all. Is my keyboard broken?
Not necessarily. Browsers keep a few combinations for themselves — F11, F12, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+T, Cmd+Q, Alt+Tab and the Windows key among them — and act on those instead of passing them to the page. Media keys, Fn-layer keys and macro keys usually never reach the browser either.
Is anything I type recorded?
No. The test runs entirely in your browser tab, keeps only which keys were pressed, and forgets even that when you close or reload the page. Nothing is sent to a server.
Is the 60% Keyboard Test free?
Free, unlimited, and no email address required. You can use it a hundred times a day and nothing changes.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. The 60% Keyboard Test runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Because the work happens locally, the tool also keeps working if your connection drops, and closing the tab is all it takes to discard everything.
Who is the 60% Keyboard Test for?
The jobs it is built for: testing a compact mechanical keyboard after a build. Checking that the arrow cluster on a 65% board registers. It is built for exactly those cases rather than being a general-purpose tool with this bolted on.
What do people usually get wrong here?
On a true 60% board the arrow keys live on a function layer, and layer keys are resolved inside the keyboard itself — so they arrive here as ordinary arrow presses.
Do I need to install anything to run this test?
No installation, no extension and no driver. The 60% Keyboard Test uses the browser's own device APIs and begins as soon as the page loads, so there is nothing to press first. Press Reset at any point to start over with a clean slate.
