This gets discussed fairly regularly and there's multiple ways to handle 
it.
If you're not aware, there's a great search engine for this list at
http://www.nabble.com/Maven---Users-f178.html

The way I've setup things I can see the changed jsp without calling
any maven target. There's more details of my solution here

Another fellow wrote a custom eclipse plugin to help him.

If you actually want to call tomcat:redeploy before seeing the changed
jsp, you may want to look at the tomcat:inplace goal or maybe 
war:exploded.
