> We had a few issues with the test stability of Kafka-related tests 
> (FLINK-24119, FLINK-29914). A workaround was to add randomness to topic 
> identifiers. This change required touching multiple code locations that made 
> it obvious that there is some room for improvement (see [Gabor's 
> comment|https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/21247#issuecomment-1307084416] 
> comment in the related PR). We could put some effort into unifying this by 
> providing a common test environment that provides utility methods he 
> mentioned in his comment:
> {quote}
> Topic creation
> Topic deletion
> Random name generation
> AdminClient creation
> Consumer creation
> Producer creation

> Currently, we have Kafka instances created in different locations in our test 
> suite (e.g. {{KafkaSourceTestEnv}}, {{KafkaTestEnvironmentImpl}}, 
> {{KafkaTableTestBase}}). One idea is to provide a JUnit5 extension for this 
> similarly to what we do with the 
> [MiniClusterExtension|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/a6db6ee5d0d6e9b50c6d110793e2efbd0d57cc38/flink-test-utils-parent/flink-test-utils/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/test/junit5/MiniClusterExtension.java]
>  for Flink. Maybe, there's already something out there that can be 
> used/extended.
