Summary

  • Centralize Sidekiq.testing!(:fake) in spec_helper.rb instead of repeating require 'sidekiq/testing' in each spec file
  • Replace Sidekiq::Testing.inline! blocks with Sidekiq.testing!(:inline) blocks
  • Silence Sidekiq logger during spec runs to reduce noise
  • Aligns with the new testing API introduced in Sidekiq 8.1+

Builds on the approach from #999 (centralized setup + logger silencing) and adds the Sidekiq::Testing.inline! migration that PR didn't cover.

Test plan

  • Verify all Sidekiq strategy specs pass (bundle exec rspec spec/chewy/strategy/sidekiq_spec.rb spec/chewy/strategy/lazy_sidekiq_spec.rb spec/chewy/strategy/delayed_sidekiq_spec.rb spec/chewy/strategy/delayed_sidekiq/scheduler_spec.rb spec/chewy/strategy/delayed_sidekiq/worker_spec.rb)
  • Confirm no remaining references to deprecated Sidekiq::Testing API

`require "sidekiq/testing"` is deprecated and will be removed in
Sidekiq 9.0. The new API makes test mode activation explicit:

- `require 'sidekiq/testing'` → `Sidekiq.testing!(:fake)`
- `Sidekiq::Testing.inline! { }` → `Sidekiq.testing!(:inline) { }`

Centralize the fake mode activation in spec_helper.rb rather than
repeating it in each spec file, and silence the Sidekiq logger
during test runs to reduce noise.

Apologies @mjankowski! I didn't see #999 before opening this PR. I've updated this to incorporate your approach (centralized spec_helper.rb setup + logger silencing) and added a Co-authored-by credit. This PR also covers the Sidekiq::Testing.inline!Sidekiq.testing!(:inline) migration that #999 didn't include.
