1. Check Java EE 7 samples and documentation related to JSR 356. The jsr is
part of Java EE 7 soecs (included in Web Profile as well).
2. Checkout Tomcat 8 source tree and check junit tests under
org.apache.tomcat.websocket packages
3. Google it and check some of the blogs currently written on the subject.
