Challenge Overview

INTRODUCTION
This is the next challenge in a series for adding functionality to the existing Topcoder Connect notification system in order to post project status changes to specified Slack channels.

REQUIREMENTS
There are two components to the notifications system:
1. Internal Slackbot that notifies managers when a project is ready for review and Copilots when it’s ready for claiming
2. Dashboard notifications in Connect that appear based on project events

Your main focus in this challenge is to identify that both areas above are functioning as intended and identify any limitations, errors, etc.  In the challenge forums you’ll find a document that includes a matrix for all notifications sent and received for each user role within the Connect system.  Validate that the events are being generated and leading to the right notifications going to the right people.

Also located in the forums is a list of user accounts to use for testing - two regular users, a manager and a copilot.  You’ll need to log in to the Connect dev system to perform all of your testing.

There is a Slack channel set up for this challenge in the Topcoder Devs Slack team. Post in the forums with your Slack team handle and you’ll be invited to join the channel.
