Maven failsafe plugin does not influence building

Question

Maven build process finishes with success even though that integration test fails. Why does it happen? I use Maven failsafe plugin Here is the output of the log:

Tests run: 1, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 4.235 sec <<< FA
ILURE! - in Case1IT
testCase(Case1IT)  Time elapsed: 4.235 sec  <<< FAILURE!
org.junit.ComparisonFailure: expected:<Hello java world![!]> but was:<Hello java
world![]>
    at Case1IT.testCase(Case1IT.java:36)
Results :

Failed tests:
Case1IT.testCase:36 expected:<Hello java world![!]> but was:<Hello java world!
[]>

Tests run: 1, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

Generally it is false.

There is the pom.xml source:

Based on the documentation you should use it like this:

<project>
  [...]
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.19</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <goals>
              <goal>integration-test</goal>
              <goal>verify</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
  [...]
</project>
