Answer 1

To solve this for my project I used Micheal's answer and arrived at this:

    
        org.apache.tomcat.maven
        tomcat7-maven-plugin
        2.2
        
            
                run-embedded
                
                    run
                
                pre-integration-test
                
                    ${maven.tomcat.port}
                    true
                    ${project.basedir}/tomcat/context.xml
                    
                    ${maven.tomcat.web-xml.file}
                
            
        
    

The CORS filter being the basic example filter from the tomcat site.

Edit:
The maven.tomcat.web-xml.file variable is a pom defined property for the project and it contains the path to the web.xml file (located within my project)
