(57) A test tumbler in a color test machine comprises an outer cylinder (1), a cloth wound device (2), at least a knock rod (3), and an upper cap (4). The outer cylinder (1) has a hollow chamber, and an open end and a closed end. The cloth wound device (2) has a piercing circumference (21), and a sample cloth is wound on the outer surface or on the inner surface. At least a knock rod (3) is received in the cloth wound device (2). The upper cap (4) is detachably blocking the open end of the outer cylinder (1). Once the cloth wound device (2) with the wound cloth and the knock rod (3) is placed in the outer cylinder (1) together with a dyestuff, the test tumbler is put in a receiving recess of the color test machine after the upper cap (4) blocking the open end of the outer cylinder (1). The test tumbler can be rotated as soon as the color test machine starts to run such that the knock rod (3) can strike the cloth wound device (2) to perform a dyeing operation on the wound cloth evenly.
