React Router with Material UI

I am pretty new to react and I am now trying to use React Router and Material UI together.

I have my Layout file which uses Navigation drawer from material UI and I have placed my menu on the left and the content on the right as shown in the pic below

What I want to do is, when I click on the Test Comp it should load the TestComp.js component on the right and so on for Test Comp One to load TestCompOne.js.

I have been through the ReactRouter code with Links, Switch and Route but I am not exactly sure where to place them.

I tried adding the following code for my Layout file which should have the Router but I am sure I have not done it right Error I get is 

Error: Invariant failed: You should not use <Link> outside a <Router>

could you please correct me to get this right please

enter image description here

index.js

import Layout from './Layout/Layout'

ReactDOM.render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <Layout/>
  </React.StrictMode>,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

component - TestComp.js

import React from "react"

export default class TestComp extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <h1>test component for test</h1>
        );
    }
}

Component TestCompOne.js

import React from "react"

export default class TestCompOne extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <h1>test component ONE for test</h1>
        );
    }
}

I am pasting the entire Layout file which is a bit big but the main area is the drawer which is the left menu and content to be displayed is where I added the <Router>. Apologies if this is completely wrong way of doing, please suggest

Component Layout.js - which has the Navigation drawer from material UI and where I want to add Router to open individual components

The Links need to be within the <Router> environment. Try 

  return (
    <Router>
    <div className={classes.root}>
      <CssBaseline />
      <AppBar position="fixed" className={classes.appBar} style={{ background: '#78a02e'}}>
        <Toolbar>
          <IconButton
            color="inherit"
            aria-label="open drawer"
            edge="start"
            onClick={handleDrawerToggle}
            className={classes.menuButton}
          >
            <MenuIcon />
          </IconButton>
          <Typography variant="h6" noWrap>
            Responsive drawer
          </Typography>
        </Toolbar>
      </AppBar>
      <nav className={classes.drawer} aria-label="mailbox folders">
        {/* The implementation can be swapped with js to avoid SEO duplication of links. */}
        <Hidden smUp implementation="css">
          <Drawer
            container={container}
            variant="temporary"
            anchor={theme.direction === 'rtl' ? 'right' : 'left'}
            open={mobileOpen}
            onClose={handleDrawerToggle}
            classes={{
              paper: classes.drawerPaper,
            }}
            ModalProps={{
              keepMounted: true, // Better open performance on mobile.
            }}
          >
            {drawer}
          </Drawer>
        </Hidden>
        <Hidden xsDown implementation="css">
          <Drawer
            classes={{
              paper: classes.drawerPaper,
            }}
            variant="permanent"
            open
          >
            {drawer}
          </Drawer>
        </Hidden>
      </nav>
      <main className={classes.content}>
        <div className={classes.toolbar} />
        <h1>{sampleText}</h1>
        <h3>I want to show individual components using React Rounter when I press them from the left menu</h3>
            <Switch>
            <Route path="/testcomp">
                <TestComp />
            </Route>
            <Route path="/testcompone">
                <TestCompOne />
            </Route>
            <Route path="/">
                <TestComp />
            </Route>
            </Switch>
          </main>
        </div>
    </Router>
  );
