MyWebApplicationInitializer implements WebApplicationInitializer {

        servletContext.addListener(new LogbackConfigListener());
        try { LogbackConfigurer.initLogging(servletContext.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/logback.xml")); }
        catch (FileNotFoundException | JoranException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
    }
}

I also have to add, that I had to move

    org.logback-extensions
    logback-ext-spring
    0.1.4
    compile

    ch.qos.logback
    logback-core
    1.2.3
    compile

from runtime (parent project in my case) to compile.
