Is there a way to play with and discover Azure Service Bus on the local emulator without registering to the real Azure Services?

I was following a tutorial on the use of the Azure Service Bus but at a certain point a Namespace and an Issuer Name and Key is required. I don't have that data since I'm not registered to Azure Services and I don't want to do it now (I will get my trial when I will feel ready to develop/test something real).

For using the Brokered Messaging capabilities (Queues, Topics and Subscriptions), you can install Service Bus for Windows Server, which will allow you to test locally.

Refer this doc here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/jj193022(v=azure.10).aspx

For relayed messaging, you need to use an Azure account. 

The costs of using the relay service for development and testing are minimal, so it may be worth creating a pay-as-you-go subscription for this.
