1. Start a contest

• The user will start a contest with a url http://localhost:8080/newcontest.
• The response will return a random integer between 1-1000
• This number will be used as the contestid. Do not use a contestid that is already in use.
• For each subsequent request to the server, the contestid must be specified on the url.
• Each contest will have a 120 second timer, once 0 is reached, subsequent requests will return status code HttpServletResponse.SC_GONE.

2. Accessing a letter
   • To access a letter at a specific location use this URL: (http://localhost:8080//wordfinder?contest=&game=<1 to 3>&pos=)

• contest:the contest id received in when starting a contest (see step 1).
• game:1-3
• Column: a-e
• Row: 1-5
• If the user submits a request, with an invalid contest id, game or pos, you must responde with the status code: response.SC_BAD_REQUEST.

3. Submitting a solution

• to submit a solution to the contest, a specific url is used: http://localhost:8080//solution?contest=&game=<1 to 3>&solution=
• solution: the word which is the solution
• If a submission is valid we must:
• return SC_OK and in the html text, the number of seconds it took to resolve the problem and how many letters were requested.
• If a submission is invalid for a game:
• the contest id must be considered invalid, and further request using this contestid should return response.SC_BAD_REQUEST.
• For a valid submission, keep a list of the 5 fastest (in term of request of letters) contest.

The solutions must be in this form:

• Game 1: position A1:A3, solution: zap
• Game 2: position E3:E5, solution: zig
• Game 3: position C2:C4, solution: zag

4. Top Score

• The url : https:// localhost:8080/topscore, will return in descending order the list of the 5 fastest times.

• Output should be in this form:

• contest id, time in seconds

5. Word list

• the url https:// localhost:8080/words, will return this list of words:
  1. zap
  2. zep
  3. zip
  4. zag
  5. zig

6. Unit tests: you must provide individual unit tests for each item that you must test A unit test must be created for:

• -validation that the word list is correct
• -validation of starting a new contest
• -validation of requesting for a letter (valid and invalid values for each parameter and combination).
• -validation of the timeout process for a contest (see https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/concurrency/sleep.html)
• -validation of submitting a solution (valid and invalid submission + management of the contest)
• -validation of the top score
