Good morning @chopper222,
As a follow-up to our previous meeting, I would like first a confirmation of your expectations and needs from Wiredcraft. Then I will need more details about gold traiding technical integration.
Regarding your customisation needs, you expect us to provide:
- username & email
You also mention user location based customisation. Could you confirm that we don’t need to provide user GPS location?
Regarding your service technical integration, could you provide more information about it? Whether on the backend and frontend integration process.
- Do you have any materials to share with us?
Best regards,
Adrien Pelegri

First make sure you read the test guidelines here: https://github.com/Wiredcraft/test-pm
This task will be followed up asynchronously over a few days and should not take more than two hours in total.
Project Introduction You have been assigned as project manager for a project for the client Mayi Corp (your client stakeholder is Anthony). The outcome of this project will be a website which allows a user to sign up, and log-in to a system that gives them gold trading information. The system as a whole is expected in 7 weeks.
Project Details The work has been divided into two parts: • the backend and frontend for login and signup - This will be handled by Wiredcraft completely • the backend and frontend for gold trading information which will be provided by a separate company Charlie Labs, you will need to interface with Chopper, their project manager, to coordinate as they are building this system from scratch for Mayi Corp.
The specific requirements for the registration have been decided as Username, Location, Password, and Email address fields. The login will be based on username. And after sign up the gold trading information system expects to receive the Username and Email so they can customise the information for each user based on location.
In your team you have: • A designer who can make mockups and flow diagrams of the login and once confirmed, implement the frontend • A developer who can implement the backend connection to the gold trading service • A frontend developer who can help out integrating the login frontend • A dev-ops engineer who can set up the servers and take care of deployment.
Your Task
The first step of this task is for you to provide the following:
• Clarify the requirements and provide your understanding of the final scope for Wiredcraft's work. • An initial project plan including:
• A work breakdown for Wiredcraft's integration with Charlie labs up to the final delivery • a rough timeline of what you think needs to happen in this project and deliverables.
You can use the methodology of your choice for this plan,
Hint: Outline the project phases you would have and what should be delivered at each phase. The plan can be a few paragraphs of text and the timeline can also be made using Github markdown by outlining what needs to be done during each week. It could include a rough outline of the process you would use for the day-to-day organisation of the development team and a short overview of how you would manage the communication flows internally and externally.
You can also kick off with any questions to multiple people in one GitHub comment, I will answer likewise and bring up more cases to test your communication skills as we go along: (Assume you have already been introduced to the client (@anthony111) and gold trading service vendor (@chopper222) ) and you can @myteam333 for questions to your development team)
e.g. @chopper222 - Hi there, can I confirm with you the requirements for ... @anthony111 - I heard from chopper222 that they need to have xxx, does that mean we need to change .... @myteam333 - I'm not clear on how xxx could work, can you tell me more about it? @mpathiuk - For the test, I don't understand what you mean by xxx ...
