            SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

            Date startDate = dateFormat.parse("2024-03-10 10:00:00");
            Date dueDate = dateFormat.parse("2024-03-17 10:00:00");
            Date reminderTime = dateFormat.parse("2024-03-10 12:00:00");

            Task task1 = new Task();
            task1.setSubject("task1");
