Hi,

>Is this normal to do, it feels like I am messing up the standard config

It's normal, common, and fine.  It might feel a little intimidating to
someone who's new to Tomcat and/or web application design, but don't
worry about it.  That's why you're doing stuff in a test environment
first, right? ;)

>Would it be better to replace ROOT app with a mini app. For example say
>I have two applications running on  tomcat could I create a third app
>which simply had a webpage giving links to the start of the other two
apps

That's also a fine option.  You can replace the ROOT index.xml file with
one that forwards to /testapp very easily.  This involves no server-side
configuration, so it's quick and easy.  However, URLs like
http://yourhost/somePageOtherThanIndex.html will not work.
