test_createRepresentativeBlocksUsingExistingBlocks()

Demonstrates that a new representative block can be generated from an existing representative block.

Notes

This tests that the XS ID of the new representative block is correct and that the compositions are identical between the original and the new representative blocks.

test_createRepresentativeBlocksUsingExistingBlocksDisableValidBlockTypes()

Demonstrates that a new representative block can be generated from an existing representative block with the setting disableBlockTypeExclusionInXsGeneration: true.

Notes
