How to use VSCode to delete classes and triggers from production?

Now that Force.com IDE is out, can anyone help me figure out how to delete classes and triggers from production using VSCode SFDX?  

I tried the SFDX command, "Delete this from Project and Org," but the error stated testLevel of NoTestRun cannot be used and I can't see where to change the test level.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Stephen,

Yes,  that's the other way to delete components using workbench.

Below links provides you more information on 'Salesforce CLI'.

Hi Stephen,

Please try 'sfdx force:source:deploy' command.

Check below.

"sfdx force:source:deploy -p "./PathToMetadata" -l RunSpecifiedTests -r TestClass1,TestClass2 -w 33 --verbose --loglevel fatal"

Review below link for more information on 'Help for force:source:delete'.

Thanks for the reply, Vinay.  Without being well versed in CLI, I ended up having success with a destructiveChanges.xml file as in this post (https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/46612/how-to-delete-a-test-class-without-using-eclipse).
