How it works and what the result means
The result checks whether the release occurred inside the target. An early release can indicate switch behavior or a canceled browser gesture.
Reading the result
A successful drop confirms the page received the pointer sequence and the final position was inside the zone. A canceled drag has several possible causes.
What to check next
Keep the button held until release inside the target. Check touch gestures, focus changes and another application if dragging stops unexpectedly.
Try a slow deliberate drag first. Touch gestures and operating-system input handling can cancel a pointer without a hardware fault.
Frequently asked questions
Does a failed drop prove the button is releasing early?
No. It can also result from releasing outside the target or a canceled pointer gesture. Repeat controlled drags and inspect the button tester.
How do I start the Mouse Drag Test?
Hold the green tile and drag it entirely into the outlined drop zone before releasing.
Does this tool require a download or an account?
No. Open the interactive tool above in a modern browser. The instructions and explanations are available even with JavaScript disabled; running a test needs JavaScript.
Why can two attempts give different results?
Power settings, background tasks, browser scheduling, operating-system input processing and device settings affect measurements. Compare repeated attempts with identical settings rather than the single highest score.
