This requires upgrading freezegun, as time.monotonic wasn't frozen
by v1.0. Note that we need to explicitly specify the base class for
the task in the test, the reason for which is quite subtle:
- Normally, by using the 'notify_api' fixture, the base class is set
to NotifyTask automatically by running app.create_app [1].
- However, when run alongside other tests, the imports of files with
other celery tasks cause the base class to be instantiated and cached
as the default Celery one. This means none of our tests actually use
our custom superclass when testing tasks.
Because we can't run 'apply_async' directly (since this would require
an actual Celery broker), we need to manually push/pop the request
Context that's normally done as part of sending a task.
Note also that we use a UUID as the name for a task, since these are
global. We want to avoid the task polluting other tests in future,
as well as make it clear the task is being reused.
