Description: This issue involves implementing an API to get mentors by category. The endpoint should allow Admin to make a GET request to {{baseUrl}}/api/admin/mentors?category={{category}}.

[
    {
        "mentorId": 2,
        "category": "Computer Science",

            "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/thomas"
        },

            "slots": 10
        }
    },

    }

Tasks:

  1. Create a controller for the /controllers/mentor endpoint in the backend (create the route mentor if not created).
  2. Parse and validate the request body to ensure it matches the expected format.
  3. Implement appropriate error handling and response status codes for different scenarios (e.g., validation errors, database errors).
  4. Write unit tests to validate the functionality and correctness of the endpoint.
