You must provide the url in the plugin configuration.
Note that for Tomcat 8 instances (I havent tested it in earlier tomcat versions) you need domain:port/manager/text

     <plugins>
        .. 
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
            <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.2</version>
            <configuration>
                <url>http://localhost:8080/manager/text</url>
                <path>/examplePath</path>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
        ..
      </plugins>
