Had to spend some hours fixing various tests. What could go wrong? Quite a few things I'll capture below:

• CircleCI login problem. To debug these, it would be useful to ssh to the build box, but it hasn't been possible for some weeks. Today I realised it's because the Github project owner is a different account, and since Github doesn't support the same ssh ID for different accounts, I made a custom ssh key, added it to Github, and could then ssh into the Circle box.
• There was a call using Mocha's .any_instance.stubs which was never restored. Some refactoring brought this bug to the open as tests maybe ran in a different order. There doesn't appear to be any way to globally reset all mocks, so I just added .any_instance.unstub to undo this in the same test.
• Another refactor inadvertently removed Sidekiq's "fake" framework, which is now in the superclass setup, so it will always be called. Sidekiq::Worker.clear_all and Sidekiq::Testing.fake! called every time.
• Added error logging to a "Headles
