Running JBoss Server from eclipse [Adempiere project]

Question

For testing the webui of adempiere, I need to build the code and deploy it every time with all change. Its much time consuming. The remote debugging is quite useful. But the build, setup and server running time remains the same. Can we run the JBoss server through eclipse ? Hence can we write the code and test it on debug mode?
