                                       java.util.Collection<java.net.URL> classpath)
Creates a new DevAppServer with a custom classpath for the web app..

Parameters:
appDir - The top-level directory of the web application to be run
webXmlLocation - The location of a file whose format complies with http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd. If null, defaults to /WEB-INF/web.xml
appEngineWebXmlLocation - The name of the app engine config file. If null, defaults to /WEB-INF/appengine-web.xml.
address - Address to bind to
port - Port to bind to
useCustomStreamHandler - If true, install StreamHandlerFactory. This is "normal" behavior for the dev app server but tests may want to disable this since there are some compatibility issues with our custom handler and Selenium.
installSecurityManager - Whether or not to install the dev appserver security manager. It is strongly recommended you pass true unless there is something in your test environment that prevents you from installing a security manager.
classpath - The classpath of the test and all its dependencies (possibly the entire app)..
Returns:
a DevAppServer
