Anyone has similar issue launching unit tests with gradle after build tools update to

3.0.0-alpha3

? It worked fine with stable

2.3.2

.

Execution failed for task ':app:testDebugUnitTest'.
> java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
   at org.gradle.api.internal.tasks.execution.ExecuteActionsTaskExecuter.executeActions(ExecuteActionsTaskExecuter.java:100)

   ...

pawegio: I had the same problem. The workaround from the second comment solved it for me. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/62325957#comment2
