Fails with org.robolectric:robolectric:3.0-rc3

[mtotschnig]

When updating to the latest RC for Robolectric 3.0, the tests no longer work, but lead to the following error:

´´´

[mtotschnig]

I forgot to mention that this problem is limited to running the test in Android Studio (on MacOS). It works fine when running with Gradle from the command line.

[nenick]

As a fast workaround read Note for Mac User at http://robolectric.org/getting-started/

I will take a look why my workaround does not work anymore.

Now it should work again

I have this problem to. (on Mac)
Already have $MODULE_DIR$ at Defaults -> JUnit -> Working directory
Im using: org.robolectric:robolectric:3.0-rc3
Any ideas?

@nilsi What are your steps to get this error? You shouldn't get this if you use the master branch.
