How do I test mouse side buttons (Forward / Back)?
Click any mouse button — including left click, right click, scroll wheel click, and side thumb buttons — anywhere on the page. The corresponding button card will illuminate in green.
Why does right click open a context menu during testing?
Our tool automatically suppresses browser right-click context menus on this page so you can test right-click switch actuations smoothly.
Does this test gaming mouse side buttons (MB4 / MB5)?
Yes! It tests Left Click (MB1), Right Click (MB2), Scroll Click (MB3), Side Back (MB4), and Side Forward (MB5).
