failsafe plugin won't run on one project but will run on another — why?

Question

This is driving me insane. The Maven failsafe plugin will not run on my project. If I run mvn verify only surefire runs. If I type mvn failsafe:verify

For me it worked only after I added the "default" includes.

    
        org.apache.maven.plugins
        maven-failsafe-plugin
        2.15
        
            
                **/IT*.java
                **/*IT.java
                **/*ITCase.java
                **/IntegrationTest*.java
            
        
        
            
                failsafe-integration-tests
                integration-test
                
                    integration-test
                
            
            
                failsafe-verify
                verify
                
                    verify
