   <groupId>org.selflearningjava</groupId>
   <artifactId>rootWebPom</artifactId>
   <packaging>pom</packaging>
   <version>1</version>
   
   <name>Root pom for all the web application</name>

 <dependencies> 
 
  <dependency>

   <version>${junit.version}</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
  </dependency>
  
  <dependency>
   <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
   <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
   <version>${hibernate.version}</version>
  </dependency>

  <dependency>
   <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.core</groupId>
