Unexpected Artifacts from CI

I have an unexpected Artifact structure after CI (App + TestApp)

My CI pipeline contains at least these steps:

  - task: ALOpsAppCompiler@1
    displayName: 'ALOPS Compile App'
    inputs:
      usedocker: true
      targetproject: 'app/app.json'
      nav_app_version: '$(AppVersion)'

# Publish App ...

  - task: ALOpsAppCompiler@1
    displayName: 'ALOPS Compile Test-Extension'
    inputs:
      usedocker: true
      targetproject: 'testapp/app.json'
      nav_app_version: $(AppVersion)

# Publish Test App & Run Tests ...

  - task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1  
    inputs:
      PathtoPublish: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
      ArtifactName: 'app'
      publishLocation: 'Container'

My Artifact contains:

When I uses this Artifact in CD I get:

Is there a better way to define, what's inside of the artifact?

Now, there is a "publish_artifact" option in the compile-step, which lets you disable the auto-artifact-creation:

- task: ALOpsAppCompiler@1
      displayName: 'ALOps App Compiler'
      inputs:
        usedocker: False                      # Run task in Docker container. $(usedocker)

        bc_password:                          # BC User Password for ServiceTier connection. $(bc_password)

        nav_app_version: 1.0.*.0              # Template for versioning NAV-Apps. '*' is replaced by the current Build Number. $(nav_app_version)

        app_file_suffix:                      # Set a suffix tag on the compiled App filename. $(app_file_suffix)
