Compiled classes missing from WAR file

I am working on a simple JSF 2 application and am having problems with managed beans. I was getting errors saying that the bean could not be found, and when I looked at the war, it did not have compiled beans. In my pom.xml, I had the following:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.traintrack</groupId>
<artifactId>test</artifactId>
<version>SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<name>test</name>
<build>
    <outputDirectory>src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes</outputDirectory>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.jboss.as.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-as-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>7.7.Final</version>
        </plugin>
        <plugin>
            <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.3</version>
            <configuration>
                <warSourceDirectory>${basedir}/WebContent</warSourceDirectory>
                <failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
        <plugin>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.0</version>
            <configuration>
                <source>1.6</source>
                <target>1.6</target>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

If I delete the WebContent folder from warSourceDirectory, I will get the rest of my project in a war file, but that seems to be wrong. The file was created by eclipse, so I would suggest that this is normal. WEB-INF has a class folder that is empty.

The structure of my project:

test
- src/
  - sample/
    - sampleBean.java
- WebContent/
  - sample.xhtml
  - WEB-INF/
    - faces-config.xml
    - web.xml
  - META-IF/

but my compiled war file structure is as follows:

test
  - sample.xhtml
  - WEB-INF/
    - faces-config.xml
    - web.xml
    - classes/
  - META-IF/

What should be packed in my war file and where should the bean compile?

, - Eclipse , Apache Maven -, . - , Maven :

1. Move all of your main (not unit test) java source files into directory `src/main/java`;
2. Move all of your unit test java source files into directory `src/test/java`;
3. Move all the files in WebContent into directory `src/main/webapp` (excluding class files and jar files);
4. Remove the following from your pom.xml:
    a. `<outputDirectory>...</outputDirectory>`;
    b. `<warSourceDirectory>${basedir}/WebContent</warSourceDirectory>`;
5. Delete the project from eclipse (but not the source files!);
6. Execute `mvn eclipse:clean` on your project from a command line;
7. Ensure that the .project file, .classpath file and content of .settings directory have been removed (manually if necessary);
8. Re-import the project into Eclipse as a 'Maven' project.
