Sample application can be downloaded from here

Lets say you deploy app1, app2, someotherapp to devhost:3000 and testhost:3000 then those apps can be accessed as follows

DEV instances
http://devhost:3000/app1
http://devhost:3000/app2
http://devhost:3000/someotherapp

TEST instances
http://testhost:3000/app1
http://testhost:3000/app2
http://testhost:3000/someotherapp

Many a times one application depends upon other applications with in the same server and hence, your application may contain code snippets as follows:

<link title="Stylesheet" href="/someotherapp/style.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" type="text/css" />

Further, those can be directly accessed as well

http://devhost:3000/someotherapp/style.css
http://testhost:3000/someotherapp/style.css

Further Jetty is the best choice for local development either embedded or using jetty-maven-plugin.

In this case it does not make sense to replicate the entire environment locally, instead those urls can be proxied in local environment such that /someotherapp/style.css would be proxied to http://devhost:3000/someotherapp/style.css

Here is how you can achieve it.

1) Map ProxyServlet.Transparent to /someotherapp/*
2) Set the Servlet init parameters as follows
ProxyTo ==> http://devhost:3000/someotherapp
Prefix ==> /someotherapp

The Above Two Steps Can be Done in Two Ways
