I have a Flutter application with a fairly complex set of Firebase security rules that I would like to test properly.

Ideally I would be able to run the same tests in the CI as well as on my local machine - which runs on Linux.

Here is what I did so far:

• Emulator, firebase, etc. is all running fine.
• Running tests that call Firebase.initializeApp() fail as the platform is not supported
• Running tests with flutter test --platform chrome test/firebase/minimal_test.dart results in a timeout
• Currently I am experimenting with running the tests in an integration_test setup -- which kind of works but is also super complex and very slow.
• Switching to another language for the security rules test would also be a possible (but painful) option
• Using either direct API calls and/or the firedart package would also be an option - of similar complexity as switching to JS/TS/Python

So I am wondering is someone has found a smart solution on how to get the security rules test to work in the combination of Dart and Linux.
