Context root is the endpoint used to request a certain application. In this example, the context root is "/beta", which is used to get the beta application.

When deploying your WAR to your Tomcat application server, the filename of your WAR is used to determine the context root.
| filename | context root |
| example.war | /example |
| foo#bar.war | /foo/bar |
