I suggest following what Anvil itself is doing. You depend on the compiler-utils artifact:

testImplementation testFixtures(project(":compiler-utils"))

(replace the project with the artifact from maven central).

And then you can call compileAnvil to test arbitrary code. Your custom code generators should be called as well. A sample is here: https://github.com/square/anvil/blob/main/integration-tests/code-generator/src/test/java/com/squareup/anvil/test/TestCodeGeneratorTest.kt
