Title: Seeking Typing Test Software
Post by: russm on Mon, 14 April 2014, 15:00:52

Good Day
 I have seen a number of typing test web sites that have unlimited WPM Test, some good some bad but I haven't seen a good one for sale /download or disk. Would any of you all have a good site were a good quality test could be purchased or just downloaded. Thank You for any assistance!

I don't really see, what you mean, but Amphetype (https://code.google.com/p/amphetype/) is excellent. Free software (as in freedom), plenty of advanced features, multiplatform (written in Python&PyQt) and works with whatever texts you provide it (there is some interesting data at the Colemak forum).
