The basic thing is to use maven-failsafe-plugin to run the integration tests. In you case this means you need to have a separate maven-module (call it: mod-it) which contains the configuration for the integration tests. The best recommendation i can give is to use the cargo2-maven-plugin to start/deploy etc. Tomcat and deploy the war application within tomcat. Furthermore you should have a layout like this:

project
|-- mod-it
|   `-- pom.xml
|-- mod-war
|   |-- pom.xml
|   `-- src
|       |-- main
|       |   |-- java
|       |   |   `-- com
|       |   |       `-- soebes
|       |   |           `-- wicket
|       |   |               |-- HomePage.java
|       |   |               `-- WicketApplication.java
|       |   |-- resources
|       |   |   |-- com
|       |   |   |   `-- soebes
|       |   |   |       `-- wicket
|       |   |   |           `-- HomePage.html
|       |   |   `-- log4j.properties
|       |   `-- webapp
|       |       `-- WEB-INF
|       |           `-- web.xml
..
`-- pom.xml

The integration tests should be named like *IT.java to get them run by the maven-failsafe-plugin

The best thing is to read this example which contains a complete example with Tomcat and cargo plugin. You can download the full example source incl. pom's etc. here.
