Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm writing a system where I need careful tracking of tasks and their corresponding business objects, with the ability to query them. So I'm putting the task ID and other data in a database. My code naturally uses the asynq.GetTaskID(ctx) function to get the task ID. The issue I'm having is trying to write tests for this code. I have no way of creating a context that asynq.GetTaskID(ctx) will accept without some ugly hacks.

Describe the solution you'd like
I need the context package in the internal directory to be exposed externally. Alternatively we need to create a separate package with some simple functions to create a mock context.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Hacking using module introspection and reflection, which is very time consuming for what should be a simple exercise.

Additional context
I would be happy to work on a fix to this issue.

@strobus Thanks for opening this issue!
I think it makes sense to create a test utility package under /x/asynqtest.
PR is welcome!

hello @hibiken I'm also interested in having an asynqtest module exposed so it making testing easier. I couldn't figure out how @strobus made hacks for testing processors, I believe we should have a mocked client/worker that we can use to test tasks.
