How to run Sails tests when a mongo oplog is watched?

Question

I added mongo-watch to my Sails application, in order to detect external changes into the mongo database, following this stackoverflow answer. This worked pretty fine, but now my automated tests fail. Probably because the barrels fixtures do not support the mongo watcher. Is there a way to set up the fixtures in Sails also when the database is watched?

You are trying to use Mongo on Travis, and it's not started by default. ;)

Seems like this can be the answer to your problem:
