Compile, deploy, and test the final app!

Deploying and testing the web app

Now it’s time to redeploy the servlet.

1 - Move a copy of the servlet’s .class file to ../Beer-v1/WEB-INF/classes/com/example/web/ (again, this will replace the previous version two class file).

3 - Shutdown and restart tomcat

4 - Test the app via form.html
