You can use the visual module for generating “fake” text or the dum
MP module for dummy figures. Example:
% fake words
\usemodule
[visual]
% for colourful dummy figures
\useMPlibrary
[dum]
\setupindenting
[yes, medium]
\starttext
\fakenwords{100}{200}
\externalfigure [dummy]
% Rumours say, Mojca used this feature for her thesis
\simplethesis
\stoptext

Have a look at the existing modules.
