Java Technical Assignment - Xcelore
#Task
We have a platform where doctors can register their patients through a mobile or web portal.
For this to work we need to build backend APIs to achieve task like:
◦ Adding a doctor & their speciality
◦ Adding a patient & it’s symptom
◦ Suggesting the doctor based on patient’s symptom
# Doctor’s entity
In our database we will have the doctor's name, city, email, phone number, and speciality.
• City can have 3 values only i.e. Delhi, Noida, Faridabad
• Speciality can have 4 values i.e. Orthopaedic, Gynecology, Dermatology, ENT
specialist
A doctor can be added or removed from the platform.
# Patient’s entity
In our database we will have the patient's name, city, email, phone number, and symptom.
• City can have any value
• Symptom can have the following values only
◦ Arthritis, Back Pain, Tissue injuries (comes under Orthopaedic speciality)
◦ Dysmenorrhea (comes under Gynecology speciality)
◦ Skin infection, skin burn (comes under Dermatology speciality)
◦ Ear pain (comes under ENT speciality)
A patient can be added or removed from the platform.
Following fields should have the mentioned validations at the backend:
◦ Name (should be at least 3 characters)
◦ City (should be at max 20 characters)
◦ Email (should be a valid email address)
◦ Phone number (should be at least 10 number)
• Suggesting Doctors
There will be another API that will accept patient ID, and suggest the doctors based on the
patient location and the symptom.
E.g. 1: If the patient ID that we received as request param in this API, that patient has
Arthritis as a symptom then all the doctors of that location who is an Orthopaedic will be sent
as the response, since Arthritis comes under Orthopaedic speciality.
Important Note: This suggesting doctor API is the evaluating API where the logic needs to be
working. The suggested doctor in the API should be based on the symptom of the patient that
links to the doctor's speciality. E.g. 2: If a patient has Eye pain then only an ENT specialist
doctor should be suggested.
Edge-Case 1: If there isn’t any doctor on that location (i.e. outside Delhi, Noida, Faridabad),
the response should be “We are still waiting to expand to your location”
Edge-Case 2: If there isn’t any doctor for that symptom on that location, the response should
be “There isn’t any doctor present at your location for your symptom”
How do you need to achieve this task?
• You need to use Spring Boot Framework(Version 3) for core functionalities along with
Hibernate for carrying out database operations.
• Use Swagger to list all your APIs (optional but a very good plus point)
Things to submit:
• Share the code via Github repository[Make repository public]. It should also contain the
postman collection that you have used to test the application i.e. created doctors, patients and
suggestion API. Also add a screenshot for API’s with request and response body in ReadMe
file.
