Describe the solution you'd like

Hi team,

As a part of Test Automation services on Telenet account we might face the cases that we need to integrate with Telenet Kafka service in scope of stubs implementation activities.

sasl.mechanism=GSSAPI
user data is stored in keyTab (which is configured by IT team)

Example of configs:

security.protocol=SASL_PLAINTEXT
sasl.kerberos.service.name=kafka
sasl.mechanism=GSSAPI
sasl.jaas.config=com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule required
useKeyTab=true
storeKey=true
keyTab="/path/to/keytab/{keytab_name}.keytab"
principal="{userPrincipalName}@mail.domain.com"

Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction

The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the executor’s Kafka integration and configuration handling, then compare its supported authentication options with the supplied SASL/GSSAPI keytab settings and TOMS example. Done should include a defined implementation scope and a way to verify Kafka authentication.
