bug(e2e): Firebase test-server causes websocket errors

[jeffbcross]

Right now the e2e test is communicating with a real Firebase.

When this file is run, and then an app is opened to connect to it, many ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED errors are logged to the console.

Virtual host configuration:

127.0.0.1       test.firebaseio.com

Ping test.firebaseio.com:

PING test.firebaseio.com (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes

To Reproduce

1. Check out this branch;
2. Run ./node_modules/.bin/http-server from the root of the project
3. Open http://localhost:8080/test/e2e/firebase_list/
4. Look at console

@jeffbcross I just checked it, reproduced, and was able to fix by switching the test server address from test.firebaseio.com to test.firebaseio.test, and updating the host file accordingly.

1. Do you want me to submit a PR ?
2. Is there a way to change the hosts file on the CI? Or do we need another workaround there?

Do you want me to submit a PR ?

yeah

Is there a way to change the hosts file on the CI? Or do we need another workaround there?

Yes! It's in .travis.yml

@urish if I made the change myself, people would see the commit and say "Jeff is so smart, he figured that out by himself." I couldn't live with the guilt of stealing your credit.

[urish]

Guilt resolved.
