# HTML5 Speedtest
|
|
|
|
No Flash, No Java, No Websocket, No Bullshit.
|
|
|
|
This is a very lightweight Speedtest implemented in Javascript, using XMLHttpRequest and Web Workers.
|
|
|
|
## Try it
|
|
[Take a Speedtest](http://speedtest.fdossena.com)
|
|
|
|
## Compatibility
|
|
Only modern browsers are supported (Edge 12+)
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
- A reasonably fast web server
|
|
- Some way to generate garbage data using either the included PHP script, a [big file of random data](http://downloads.fdossena.com/geth.php?r=speedtest-bigfile), or a symlink to /dev/urandom
|
|
- Your server must accept large POST requests (up to 10 Megabytes), otherwise the upload test will fail
|
|
- Client side, there must not be any type of buffering (such as a proxy), or you may get incorrect results
|
|
- It's also better if your server does not use compression, but it's not mandatory
|
|
|
|
## How to use
|
|
See the examples, it's really simple.
