Typing test without punctuation or capital letters

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): Yes, this test uses everyday lowercase words with no punctuation or capitals, so it measures your pure typing speed without the Shift key or symbol keys slowing you down. That usually gives a slightly higher WPM than tests with full sentences. The Portuguese and Spanish versions do include accented letters such as á, ã, é, ñ and ç, because they are part of the words. If a job test includes punctuation, practise sentences separately.
