1. A detection method comprising:
transporting a rack holding a reaction vessel along a first axis toward a sample dispensing position;
linearly moving the sample dispensing pipette above the rack along a second axis intersecting the first axis in a top view, and dispensing a sample into the reaction vessel located at the sample dispensing position;
transporting the rack along the first axis toward a reagent dispensing position;
linearly moving a reagent dispensing pipette above the rack along a third axis intersecting the first axis in a top view, and dispensing a reagent into the reaction vessel located at the reagent dispensing position;
swinging the rack in a horizontal plane; and
detecting a detection target in a measurement specimen prepared from the sample and the reagent.
