Is there a way to simulate failures? #16

How should we simulate error for firebase database and authentication methods? I would like to know if anyone is doing something similar or workaround.

For example:

firebase.auth().signInWithEmailAndPassword(email, password)
    .catch(function(error) {
   //  I want to test this
});

adaNameRef.set({ first: 'Ada', last: 'Lovelace' })
  .then(function() {
    console.log('Synchronization succeeded');
  })
  .catch(function(error) {
   //  I want to test this
  });

Yes.

You can test signInWithEmailAndPassword failures by specifying identities when configuring the mock and by using invalid credentials when calling signInWithEmailAndPassword.

And you can force read and write failures by embedding errors - using the ".error" key - in the mock's database. This is mentioned in the README and there are numerous examples in the tests. The set test is here.
