tomcat - tomcat7-maven-plugin custom server.xml

Question

I am trying to use the tomcat7-maven-plugin:run with a custom server.xml, which contains a Realm I need to enable. As described in the docs I have used <serverXml /> to point to my file. However, my application does not then get loaded. The plugin docs state that I need to configure the context for my application manually.

How do I do this? I am unsure what to put for the docBase etc.

Thanks.
