How to test a keyboard

Click the page, then press every key you care about — letters, modifiers, arrows and function keys. A working key highlights. If a key never lights, it is hardware, firmware, or a language layout mismatch.

N-key rollover

Hold several keys at once. Cheap membranes often drop the third or fourth key. Gaming boards with NKRO keep more keys visible here.

FAQ

Why does a key show the wrong character?

OS layout (QWERTY vs AZERTY) maps physical keys to characters. The event code is still the hardware key.

Does this keyboard test work on a laptop?

Yes. Fn-combos depend on the vendor and may not appear as separate keys.
