| that is integrated with the workbench. It is intended for preliminary testing |
| and saves you the time to download, install, and set up an application server. |
| However, as your J2EE Web project progresses through its development cycle |
| you are encourage to test and run on an external application server. You |
| can use the J2EE Preview server as a convenient way to check for errors before |
| you do a final test on an external application server.<p>To create and test |
| on a J2EE Preview server for previewing your resources in a J2EE Web project, |
| complete the following steps:</p> |
