Open Source encoders packaged with FFmpeg and MP4Box DASH encoder can be used to generate DASH (test) content that covers a wide range of DASH features. A few resources on the web that document how to use these tools is gathered in the following (status May 2017):

"DASH Support in MP4Box" : https://gpac.wp.imt.fr/mp4box/dash/
"Radiant Media Player: Working with MP4Box" : https://www.radiantmediaplayer.com/guides/working-with-mp4box.html
