Feature: Implement Azure Event Hubs

What are you trying to do?
Since the 11th of June, it is possible to emulate azure eventhubs. The intention of this enhancement is to implement an Azure Event Hubs test container to facilitate local development and testing of applications that interact with Azure Event Hubs. This allows developers to simulate the behavior of Azure Event Hubs without needing access to the actual cloud service, thereby improving development efficiency and reducing costs.

Why should it be done this way?
Benefits of a feature as such, are comparable to the other testcontainer modules;

1. Cost Efficiency
   • Developers can test their applications locally without incurring costs associated with using the actual Azure Event Hubs service.
2. Isolation & Consistancy
   • It allows for isolated and consistent testing environments
3. Offline development
   • Enables development and testing in environments without internet access

Beside the benefits, it is not that trivial to set it up with the generic containers as it needs some dependencies like a checkpoint storage in the form of an Azurite container.

Inizia leggendo la panoramica collegata dell'emulatore Azure Event Hubs e della configurazione Docker, quindi confronta i moduli dei container di test già presenti nel repository. Determina come avviare insieme l'emulatore e il relativo storage dei checkpoint Azurite richiesto, e usa l'esempio Python collegato per definire il comportamento previsto dell'integrazione. Il lavoro è completo quando è disponibile un container di test Azure Event Hubs utilizzabile, con supporto per lo sviluppo e i test locali.
