web app url config question

i have a question that after reading the majority of the online docs is
still unanswered.

i.e. i would like http://localhost:8080 to load
http://localhost:8080/testwebapp/home.jsp.

is this possible?

Thanks for the quick response Rob.

I saw that but was afraid that was violating some tomcat best practice.

If that is indeed the best way of configing my url then I'll roll with
it.

thx...

There are a number of ways to do this.  One is listed at the bottom of the 
wiki howto page:
