The travis config needed small fix to work, but now that's out of the way we are stuck with another one.
Right now the server starts fine & Travis doesn't know what to do with the running server, so it gives error after a 10min timeout. Hence, we need to give a script in travis config, that actually expects something, and if the expectation is fulfilled, returns back with success.
@sudheesh001 a grunt test sort of command would be good enough.
