logstash-receiver.conf

input {
	gelf { debug => true type => "gelf-test" }
}

output {
	stdout { debug => true }
}

logstash-sender.conf

input {
	stdin { type => 'test_input' }
}

output {
	gelf { host => '127.0.0.1' }
	stdout { debug => true }
}

Thanks for that !
Currently debug is going to be removed from logstash, for gelf you can use "level" instead.
