Obtaining

Test instance blocks are available using the /setblock, /fill, or /give commands, and are available in the Creative inventory in Java Edition. When placed, test instance blocks are unbreakable in Survival and have the same blast resistance as bedrock.

Usage

Cannot be placed in Survival. When placed, use the test instance block to open its GUI. The GUI opens only if the player is in Creative mode, and has permission level 2 or higher.
