actually you need to change it to be integration-test compatible...

Well what you really should do, if you are executing a goal that is
bound to the "integration-test" phase is *never fail the build* but
offer a second goal (bound to the "verify" phase) that checks the
results of your "integration-test" phase goal and fails the build if
necessary.

That is how integration tests are supposed to work... see both the
failsafe and invoker plugins for examples of this.

In short, if your goal is bound to the "integration-test" phase then
you should not fail the build *ever* otherwise the
"post-integration-test" phase never gets executed to do whatever
tidy-up is needed in the user's build...

Oh and while I am at it, *never* invoke the "integration-test" phase directly

mvn integration-test <---- BAD BAD BAD

mvn verify <---- GOOD

Again this is for the same reason
