Yes the servlet tag in web.xml is where you define the servlet's name.




* The value of the url-pattern, welcome-file and the action value in
the form tag should be all the same


Yes, the url-pattern in the mapping tag of your web.xml file defines the
string that a browser would need to send in order to invoke your
servlet.



* I should have one set of servlet, servlet-mapping and welcome file
for every servlet I use


NO.  The welcome file is the default file.  (ex:  index.html, or
index.jsp)  If you want your servlet to be the default servlet for your
app, this is where to set it up.





* I should never use "/" as a pattern because that is what Tomcat
uses for static resources.


Yes.  (unless you want to handle all the default behavior..)




* Can I have a url-pattern /foobar/foo2bar?


Yes.
