How to use this test

What to do

Squeeze each trigger slowly and release it. Check that the reported amount rises and returns to rest.

What to look for

The values are normalized positions from the browser, expressed as percentages.

The Gamepad API supplies button values, axes, and timestamps. A trigger value is normalized input, not physical pressure. Timestamp changes are browser-visible updates, not proof of a hardware polling specification.
