This plugin is part of Maven project itself and state that "The
Failsafe Plugin is designed to run integration tests while the
Surefire Plugin is designed to run unit tests" so indeed it looks like
the right move :)

Hi devs,
We’ve been using the surefire plugin from the beginning even for functional tests.
However it would be more correct to use the failsafe plugin for functional tests since
this allows to perform some actions if a test fails (like stopping XWiki - Note that right
now this is not affecting us since we start/stop XWiki from Java so we’ve implemented this
behavior ourselves).
I need this for using the fabric8 docker plugin for ex so that if some functional test
fails the docker containers will be stopped.
Ok with everyone?
For reference:

Thanks
