You can test your JSP pages on an existing server or you can create
a new server automatically for testing.
In the Project Explorer view, find the JSP page you want to test.
It should be in the Web content folder under your Web project.
Right-click the JSP page name to open the pop-up menu.
Select Run on Server. The Server selection
wizard opens.
You can use an existing server or create a new server:
If the test server is already configured for this project, ensure
that it is selected under Use an existing server.
If no test server is configured for the project, select Create
a new server. Select the server type, for example WebSphere® version
5.1 test environment.
Click Finish. This launches your
test server to run the JSP page. The server tools automatically do the following
tasks for you:
Creates a server project with Servers as
the default name.
Creates the server.
Adds the EAR project containing your Web project to the server.
Starts the server. (This might take time to start depending on the server
settings.)
Displays the file in the Web browser.
Other options for testing are Debug on Server and Profile
on Server.
