I am writing a telemetry processor, and I need ideas how to create the telemetry for testing.

There are already static tests where I have some captured OTel data, now I'm looking to create a live test setup.

The setup needs to be easy to create and break down, ideally with more than one type of service, and optionally with an external dependency.

What components should I include? How would you build it?
