How can I separate testing and production data in my Firebase Database?

Question

Each Firebase project includes only one JSON tree for data. Best practices dictate that tests should be run on a separate database from production data. What is the simplest way

Answer 1

Create multiple Firebase projects. Each project has its own plist file.

FIRApp has a custom configuration option. Download the plist for your testing/debug project, rename it and load like below.

#if DEBUG
    NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"GoogleService-Info-dev" ofType:@"plist"];
    FIROptions *options = [[FIROptions alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:filePath];
    [FIRApp configureWithOptions:options];
#else
    [FIRApp configure];
#endif
