Description bht 2012-01-05 21:56:56 UTC 
- Start NB
- open the project (if it isn't already)
- 'right-click Debug' the project
- 'right-click Run' the project.

If the project was already deployed, and there are no source code changes, then curretly the project still gets un-deployed and deployed.

There could be a potential time saving if the IDE can skip the
re-deployment if the project is up to date. Like when I click in the services
window at the deployed app "Open in Browser" but I don't always know whether I
made source code changes.

There could be a dependency on

Project Properties|Libraries|"Build required Projects (Libraries and WAR
content)"

If the project is a web app project the output on my mac for the secondary right-click Run is 


init:
deps-module-jar:
deps-ear-jar:

library-inclusion-in-manifest:

run-deploy:

run-display-browser:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 0 seconds)

If I put that web app into an ear, the output is

The web app was set to compile on save but not deploy on save... though that may be a false lead.

WicketExample comes from http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=94576 which is part of bug 181173
