Is there a LDAP server emulator or a Windows Active Directory emulator, I'm talking something in the lines of smtp4dev which doesn't have to be configured and just work for a development environment in order to test authentication code.

How do I test Windows Active Directory?

The best way to verify the operation of Active Directory is to run the console utility Dcdiag (Domain Controller Diagnosis). Dcdiag executes several tests to verify that AD is working correctly. If Dcdiag reports a failed test you will need to troubleshoot your domain controller to find the cause.

What is the Pdce?

I suspect you might want to try Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS), formerly known as Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM).
