   • The server Console tab shows messages detailing the JBoss EAP 6.3 server start and the helloworld quickstart deployment.
   • A helloworld tab appears displaying the URL http://localhost:8080/jboss-helloworld/HelloWorld and the text "Hello World!".
   • The following messages in the Console confirm deployment of the jboss-helloworld.war file:

     JBAS018210: Register web context: /jboss-helloworld
     JBAS018559: Deployed "jboss-helloworld.war" (runtime-name : "jboss-helloworld.war")

     The registered web context is appended to http://localhost:8080 to provide the URL used to access the deployed application.
6. To verify the helloworld quickstart deployed successfully to the JBoss server, open a web browser and access the application at this URL: http://localhost:8080/jboss-helloworld

Procedure 5.3. Run the bean-validation quickstart Arquillian tests

1. Follow the procedure above to import the bean-validation quickstart into Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio.
2. If you do not see a Servers tab or have not yet defined a server, follow the instructions here: Section 4.1.5, “Add the JBoss EAP Server Using Define New Server”
3. Right-click on the jboss-bean-validation project in the Project Explorer tab and select Run As. You are provided with a list of choices. Select Maven Build.

Procedure 5.4. Build and Deploy the Quickstarts Using a Command Line

1. If you have not yet done so, Section 4.2.4.2, “Configure the Maven Settings for Use with Command Line”.
2. Review the README.html file in the root directory of the quickstarts.
   This file contains general information about system requirements, how to configure Maven, how to add users, and how to run the Quickstarts. Be sure to read through it before you get started.
   It also contains a table listing the available quickstarts. The table lists each quickstart name and the technologies it demonstrates. It gives a brief description of each quickstart and the level of experience required to set it up. For more detailed information about a quickstart, click on the quickstart name.
   Some quickstarts are designed to enhance or extend other quickstarts. These are noted in the Prerequisites column. If a quickstart lists prerequisites, you must install them first before working with the quickstart.
   Some quickstarts require the installation and configuration of optional components. Do not install these components unless the quickstart requires them.
3. Run the helloworld quickstart.
   The helloworld quickstart is one of the simplest quickstarts and is a good way to verify that the JBoss server is configured and running correctly. Open the README.html file in the root of the helloworld quickstart. It contains detailed instructions on how to build and deploy the quickstart and access the running application
4. Run the other quickstarts.
   Follow the instructions in the README.html file located in the root folder of each quickstart to run the example.
