Running the application

As we have already configured the deployment to Tomcat, you should have the application running now. You can always download the source code for this book; find the source code under the worldgdp folder. After downloading, you have to build it using Maven, as follows:

$ mvn package 

The preceding command will run the tests as well. The WAR file worldgdp.war, present in the target, can be uploaded to Tomcat through the Manager app or copied to the TOMCAT_HOME/webapps folder. Tomcat will then explode the archive and deploy the app. 

The following are some of the screenshots of the application in action, starting with the listing page:

Similarly, we have another popup to add a new country language, as shown in the following:
