This is a skills assessment test one company I interviewed with sent me. This is my solution to the assessment. This was my first ever REST API written in Java Spring. I had 6 hours to work on this. I am pretty familiar with Java, so it was not such a steep learning curve for the API constructs.

Basically I was supposed to create a Java REST Api that had two endpoints.

The end points were as follows

• @post:/event insert an event
• @get:/event find the mean amount of events placed in the last 60 seconds

To run the code:

mvn spring-boot:run
