+In Rails 4.2 an ActiveJob inherents from `ActiveJob::Base`. In Rails 5.0 this

+### Foreign Key Support
+
+The migration DSL has been expanded to support foreign key definitions. If
+you've been using the Foreigner gem, you might want to consider removing it.
+Note that the foreign key support of Rails is a subset of Foreigner. This means
+that not every Foreigner definition can be fully replaced by it's Rails
+migration DSL counterpart.
+
+The migration procedure is as follows:
+
+1. remove `gem "foreigner"` from the Gemfile.
+2. run `bundle install`.
+3. run `bin/rake db:schema:dump`.
+4. make sure that `db/schema.rb` contains every foreign key definition with
+the necessary options.
