Firebase provides emulator that can be used for local development and testing https://firebase.google.com/docs/emulator-suite

Why?

  • Safer
  • Faster
  • Cheaper
  • Independent database instance

This would require some mechanism to provide local test data (either with fixtures or a script to pull a sample from the dev instance), otherwise the emulator won't allow doing much. This implies maintaining this script/fixture as well.
