Description
Hi, I'm currently working on testing kafka broker / topic and payload for integration testing, I just want to know that to spin up the kafka docker container, I first have to install kafka broker locally right? Because when I run the following code:
with KafkaContainer('confluentinc/cp-kafka:5.4.3') as kafka_container:
bluhbluhbluh.....
a specific kafka gets started, and is waiting to be ready, but then it throws NoBrokerAvailable exception after sine time, so the program stops at the with statement, and the "bluhbluhbluh" part doesn't get executed.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the KafkaContainer('confluentinc/cp-kafka:5.4.3') integration setup and inspect why readiness ends with NoBrokerAvailable; verify whether a local Kafka installation is required. Done when the container becomes usable and the code after the with statement runs without that exception.
