Maybe having a simple example available under just xarray.testing.dummy_dataset() is a good idea after all. If we do ever want to change it for xarray's own testing purposes, that would be quite easy.

That said... if we're going to emesh this in our API lets at least think a little bit to make sure we cover most of the special cases we care about. I think we cover most of the dtypes we care about, but let's also add at least: - Some global attributes - A scalar data variable (it's easy to forget about these)

Anything else?

We might also consider tweaking the names -- dim1, dim2 and dim3 is not very descriptive. Even x, y and z would be better.
