What does mean "specified for property 'resDir' does not exist."

When I build my project. Gradle result is underblock (I'm using data binding in some code)

Error:A problem was found with the configuration of task ':app:processDebugAndroidTestResources'.> Directory 'C:\Users\user\Desktop\"My project loaction"\app\build\intermediates\data-binding-layout-out\androidTest\debug' specified for property 'resDir' does not exist.

I' try many method (ex: gradle setting, Android stdio setting reset, disable instant run, make just empty directory). but this method is not work for me. Is any Idea of solution?

My env

Adnroid stuidio : ver 2.2.3

Gradle : ver 3.2 (use local)

Settings (Build, Execution, Deployment)



     buildscript {
        repositories {
            maven { url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/" }
        }

        dependencies {
            classpath "gradle.plugin.me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.4.0"
        }
    }

    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

    //Can lambda expression in android
    apply plugin: "me.tatarka.retrolambda"


    android {
        compileSdkVersion 23
        buildToolsVersion '23.0.3'

        defaultConfig {
            applicationId "My project package name"
            minSdkVersion 21
            versionCode 1
            versionName "1.0"
        }

        buildTypes {

            // This code block is adding app version at apk file
            applicationVariants.all { variant ->
                variant.outputs.each { output ->
                    output.outputFile = new File(
                            output.outputFile.parent,
                            output.outputFile.name.replace(".apk", "-${variant.versionName}.apk"))
                }
            }

            debug {

Delete root .build and .idea directories. Make project again solved this problem. However it took me 24 mins to build the project.

I fixed this issue by deleting the .gradle/ directory in the project dir and kicking off a new build.

Complete uninstall Android studio

I didn't find any solution or not work for me.

So I uninstall all Android studio resource refer to upper link. And reinstall Android studio not contain SDK. (SDK install manually)

Seems to be fixed in Studio 2.3 Beta 1.

In my specific scenario invoking ./gradlew :app:installDebug once after switching flavors fixed the issue temporarily.
