 ## Usage
 
-Add `:async` to the `devise` call in your model:
+1. Setup [ActiveJob](http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/active_job_basics.html),
+2. Add `:async` to the `devise` call in your model:

-Set your queuing backend by creating `config/initializers/devise_async.rb`:

-```ruby
-# Supported options: :resque, :sidekiq, :delayed_job, :queue_classic, :torquebox, :backburner, :que, :sucker_punch
-Devise::Async.backend = :resque

-Tip: it defaults to Resque. You don't need to create the initializer if using it.

-### Custom mailer class

-Customize `Devise.mailer` at will and `devise-async` will honor it.
-
-Upgrade note: if you're upgrading from any version < 0.6 and getting errors
-trying to set `Devise::Async.mailer` just use `Devise.mailer` instead.

-### Custom queue

-Let you specify a custom queue where to enqueue your background Devise jobs.
-Defaults to :mailer.

-```ruby
-# config/initializers/devise_async.rb
-Devise::Async.queue = :my_custom_queue

-
-### Custom priority
-
-You can specify a custom priority for created background jobs in Devise or Backburner.
-If no value is specified, jobs will be enqueued with whatever default priority is configured in Devise or Backburner.
-
-```ruby
-# config/initializers/devise_async.rb

-  config.queue   = :my_custom_queue
-end

-## Troubleshooting
-
-If you are using Sidekiq and your jobs are enqueued but not processed you might need to set a queue explicitly:
-
-```ruby
-# config/initializers/devise_async.rb
-Devise::Async.setup do |config|
-  config.backend = :sidekiq
-  config.queue   = :default
 end
 ```
 
-## Testing
-
-Be aware that since version 0.3.0 devise-async enqueues the background job in active
-record's `after_commit` hook. If you're using rspec's `use_transactional_fixtures` the jobs
-might not be enqueued as you'd expect.

-## Devise < 2.2
+## Older versions of Rails and devise
 
-Older versions of Devise are supported in the [devise_2_1](https://github.com/mhfs/devise-async/tree/devise_2_1) branch and in the 0.5 series of devise-async.
+If you want to use this gem with Rails < 5 and/or devise < 4 check out older releases, please.
 
-Please refer to that branch README for further info.
+## Testing
 
-## Devise >= 4.0
+RSpec is used for testing. The following should be enough for running the test:
 
-The current state of this gem does not support Devise 4.0 and up. Have a look into [the Github issue](https://github.com/mhfs/devise-async/issues/94) addressing this. If you are in need for a solution to send Devise messages delayed [a switch to ActiveJob](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#activejob-integration) is strongly advised.
