WorkManager: Call doWork() immediately for test purposes

If I have a PeriodicWorkRequest I can set a time intervall - which minimum is 15 minutes.
But how can I test if my doWork() method is working without waiting for 15 minutes?



Is it maybe possible to use OneTimeWorkRequest for test purposes?



Thanks in advance

          Yes, there is nothing stopping you from using OneTimeWorkRequest.



          val work = OneTimeWorkRequest.Builder(MyWorker::class.java).build()
          
WorkManager.getInstance().enqueue(work)


          Bear in mind, that this will not allow you to test that your Worker will fire after a set number of minutes, like when using PeriodicWorkRequest. It will however let you test that your code works, without needing to wait.
