If you are looking for sandbox, you can take a look at the hortonworks sandbox.
http://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/lap-around-deploying-managing-configuring-hdp-ambari-1-7/ has some overview. Once you have sandbox running, if you can set multiple VMs on the same network, you can use ambari on the sandbox to add more nodes. I use vagrant approach pointed by jun to build test clusters.
