Building the testmodel application

Check that you have the required software installed and configured, see prerequisites.
Get the InterMine software
Create a file called 'testmodel.properties'
- This file tells the testmodel application which databases to use.
- You will need to change the properties to your own database server and database username/password.
- Put it in ~/.intermine with the following contents. includeConf(trunk/intermine/doc/example/testmodel.properties)?
You should now manually create the databases needed by the testmodel application. Execute:
```
createdb testmodel-webapp
createdb testmodel-webapp-userprofile
```

Now initialise the two databases:

cd testmodel/dbmodel
ant clean build-db
ant insert-data-unittest

cd testmodel/webapp/main
ant build-db-userprofile

Build the testmodel web application and release to the running tomcat:
```
cd testmodel/webapp/main
ant default release-webapp
```
If you have previously released a webapp to /intermine-test you will need to remove it as well:
```
cd testmodel/webapp/main
ant default remove-webapp release-webapp
```
Browse to http://localhost:8080/intermine-test to view the web interface for the testmodel application.
