My maven project structure:
My question is, I need to run only parent module, that automatically instantiate that's sub modules(tomcat server). Is it possible with spring boot multi module project?
Note : I am using STS. parent packaging is pom and child module packaging is jar files.
My Parent pom file
http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> 4.0.0
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>test-parent</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

<parent>

<relativePath /> <!-- lookup parent from repository -->
</parent>

<module>authenticationService</module>
<module>dataLayerService</module>
</modules>
My Question is how can I run parent project using tomcat? If I run parent project, child modules are automatically gets run or not?
Thanks in advance !!!
