I have several Elixir projects, and I want to use AutoDevops. Clearly tests are not ran by default, because the env is nor recognised. So I have defined a BUILDPACK_URL env var pointing to https://github.com/HashNuke/heroku-buildpack-elixir.git; also I have defined a elixir_buildpack.config which defines a hook to run tests:
hook_post_compile="mix test --trace"
The test job fails with:

Clearly I don’t expect this setup to already work, but the buildpack not being found is a major issue, that I have to fix to resolve the other errors. The point is that I haven’t found any relevant guide that explains how to use a custom buildpack.
Another option would be to define a custom job for tests, but that would exclude the chance to use AutoDevOps, am I right ?
