Maven: Can't Launch Plugins on JAR project in pre-integration-test and post-integration-test phases

Question

I am writing a JAR file that acts as a client to the Jenkins CI webapp. Therefore, my project has jar packaging, not war packaging. However, for integration testing, I need to deploy the Jenkins WAR to test my JAR classes against.

I am using the cargo-maven2-plugin, and have it set up so that I can launch Jenkins from the command line with "mvn cargo:run" However, running "mvn install" gets into the integration-test phase without attempting to launch Jenkins with Cargo. In fact, the output of "mvn install -X" doesn't even mention the word "cargo".

It looks like I have bound cargo to pre-integration-test and post-integration-test correctly, but it just won't fire off.

How can I get this to fire as needed?

Your posted pom works as expected for me. I just dropped it into an empty project, and:

$ mvn install
[...]

[...]

That's with Maven 3.0.3:

$ mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 11:31:09-0600)

I'm not sure what else it might be.
