I have posted up details on this - with a script here: 

 http://ironclaws.wordpress.com/2012/06/21/jbpm-5-3-tomcat-7-mysql-ant-script/ http://ironclaws.wordpress.com/2012/06/21/jbpm-5-3-tomcat-7-mysql-ant-script/

The key issues with deploying jbpm to Tomcat - which are not strictly JBoss / JBPM specific are:

 i) Configuring of the JTA / JNDI:
     The following resources are worth looking at:

 http://codepitbull.wordpress.com/2011/07/08/tomcat-7-with-full-jta/ http://codepitbull.wordpress.com/2011/07/08/tomcat-7-with-full-jta/
 http://docs.codehaus.org/display/BTM/Tomcat http://docs.codehaus.org/display/BTM/Tomcat

ii) Installation of Bitronix Transaction Manager
 http://www.bitronix.be/Btm/Tomcat55Howto http://www.bitronix.be/Btm/Tomcat55Howto

   - Particularly where jta-1.1.jar / geronimo etc. should be located on Tomcat.

iii) Questions relating to how to create database on startup: Definitely check the JDBC driver documentation.
     eg. For MySQL:  http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html

iv) When confronted with jars not loading due to servlet validation errors - consider patching the jar by removing the enclosed javax.servlet.
     This is particularly useful with the Google gwt-user jars - of which at present (up to vs. 2.4) none will load correctly on Tomcat.
