Deploying the web application in Eclipse

In project properteis

1. Right click on project root at Eclipse project explorer. 
• At [Deployment Assembly]
• [Add ..] [Java Build Path Entries]
  
  
2. Choose [Maven Dependencies]
   

Otherwise, the first maven dependency class to be used will encounter ClassNotFoundException, most probably ContextLoaderListener specified in web.xml.

During startup, tomcat log will show the list of URI-handler mapping
