Rails 5 - Resque not processing enqueued job - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm trying to do enqueue a simple job using Resque 1.26.0 (and Redis-rb 3.3.1). The job doesn't seem to be processing the perform function because resque-web is processing each job and shows 0 failures. The jobs also are being processed instantly.
The jobs are enqueued from a controller action with
Resque.enqueue(TestJob, url)
The job itself looks like
class TestJob < ApplicationJob
#queue = :tags_queue
Logger.new("log/resque_worker_QUEUE.log").fatal("thing")
def self.perform(url)
Logger.new("log/resque_worker_QUEUE.log").fatal("other thing")
logger.fatal("more errors please")
myDivideByZeroVar= 1/0
raise "error"
Logger.new("log/resque_worker_QUEUE.log").fatal("other thing")
logger.fatal("more errors please")
end
end
A rake task is also set up:
require 'resque/tasks'
task "resque:setup" => :environment
The redis-server is running.
The worker is started with rake resque:work QUEUE=*. Using verbose logging doesn't show anything useful.
The log file only shows the first fatal error string "thing". None of the other errors are logged that are inside perform.
What am I doing wrong here?

Solved this. The job needed to be called using ActiveJob instead of using Resque.enqueue. TestJob.perform_later(url) worked just fine.
