For a java web application project we have identified tomcat7 as web server and jboss (version 7.1) as the application server. For development environment, both will run in the same machine. My question is what are the configuration which needs to be done for such a setup?
The web application uses JSF with prime faces at the presentation layer and spring for business layer

Tomcat is a servlet engine not just a simple web server. JBoss AS already provides a servlet engine as part of the Java EE specifications. There is no need to run both together. In fact JBoss AS uses JBossWeb which is based on Tomcat.
If you're looking for a web server for the front end Apache HTTPD is probably the way to go, though it's not really needed.
