Sidekiq not enqueuing jobs

redis, ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-3, sidekiq

Solution

The issue was having rspec-sidekiq in the development group

group :development, :test do
  gem 'yard'
  gem 'pry'
  gem 'rspec-rails'
  gem 'rspec'
  gem 'rspec-sidekiq'
end

Problem

I am switching from delayed_jobs to sidekiq and I am having a bit of an issue with getting sidekiq to enqueue the jobs. Following the example on sidekiq.org, I created the following class: ``` class HardWorker include Sidekiq::Worker sidekiq_options queue: "publish_queue" def perform(name, count) puts 'Doing hard work' end end ``` I started sidekiq with the following command: bundle exec sidekiq -e development -C config/sidekiq.yml When I run perform_async on the worker, I would expect it to enqueue the job. I event get back a job id, but nothing is enqueued. This is the output I receive: ``` 2.0.0p247 :001 > HardWorker.perform_async('bob', 5) => "d376dcd5f06ccb2633a5e76c" ``` When I look at the queues with in the web interface, there are no queues available. The default queue doesn't even exist. This is my sidekiq.yml file. ``` development: verbose: true concurrency: 15 queues: - [publish_queue, 10] - [mailer_queue, 2] - [default, 5] ```
