old notes

bundle exec bin/delayed_job start # stop | status

Delayed::Job.find(10).invoke_job # 10 is the job.id

Delayed::Job.find(10).destroy

disable delayed_job when running RSpec

you can do this in spec_helper

# spec/spec_helper.rb
Spork.prefork do
  ENV["RAILS_ENV"] ||= 'test'

  Delayed::Worker.delay_jobs = false

  RSpec.configure do |config|
    #....
  end
end

or in initializer

# config/initializers/delayed_jobs.rb
Delayed::Worker.delay_jobs = !Rails.env.test?

or individually where you call it

# app/model/notifications.rb
def create_notifications
end
handle_asynchronously :create_notifications unless Rails.env.test?
