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

Answer 1

If you are running 2.12.2 version of the failsafe plugin, this is normal. Switch to a previous version. It seem 2.13 is not available yet.
