How to add spring boot actuator to WAR project

Question

I have spring mvc application. I tried to convert it to spring boot by doing following steps.

1. Adding spring-boot-starter-parent parent pom
2. Adding relevant spring-boot-starter dependncy
3. Removing spring-mvc and other dependency.
4. Removed AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer class.
5. Added @ComponentScan, @EnableAutoConfiguration to root config class.

This was successful and I could see that application was working but when I added spring-boot-starter-actuator dependency and run mvn jetty:run . http://localhost:8080//actuator returns 404 response. Can someone please tell me how I can add actuator in this case ?
