No. The start_tomcat that is provided in the sample application is meant
to start Tomcat, which is what it does ...

The Cactus framework has nothing to do with Ant nor Tomcat. The provided
sample application gives an example of how you could automate the
process of running Cactus tests by automatically starting and stopping
your container but this is not meant to be the only solution and it may
not fit your use case.
BTW, if you wish to understand how Cactus integrates with Ant and how
the runservertests task works and such, you should read
http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/howto_ant.html and more specifically
http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/howto_ant_cactus.html
