UPDATE vs Edited
Workflows fire when a record is "Edited". Does the workflow fire if some APEX code does an UPDATE on the record. I'm guessing not, but I can't find any documentation to support this theory.

And from the documentation here is when a workflow is and is not triggered.
When Do Workflow Rules Get Triggered?
Saving a record whether in the UI or via APEX will cause the Edited rules to fire.
