How to precompile JSP files in Wildfly 10?

Question

In older versions of JBoss AS, the Tomcat jasper JSPC compiler could be used to precompile JSP pages to ensure that they were all syntactically valid JSP files.

According to https://access.redhat.com/solutions/175893, as of JB EAP 6, the JSPC compiler is no longer supported.

How am I supposed to validate that JSP files are syntactically correct during a build/package process? If not, it seems that the only solution is to launch a full JB instance during the test phase and navigate to every JSP individually to ensure that it compiles properly each time.

Is there not a WildFly supported mechanism to validate JSP pages during the build phase?

If you want to validate a multiple jsp pages then you can use Arquillian to write a test that access all jsp in a war. – Alarum

Although you are asking about Wildfly the problem is not Wildfly-related. Just try to precompile your JSPs before deployment time. You may find questions like compile jsp using maven
