Android Studio can't resolve Espresso 3.0.0

According to the Android Espresso documentation to date:

Add Espresso dependencies

To add Espresso dependencies to your project, complete the following steps:

  1. Open your app’s build.gradle file. This is usually not the top-level build.gradle file but app/build.gradle.
  2. Add the following lines inside dependencies:
androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.0'
androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.0'

I created a new project and the generated app/gradle file was like this:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion "26.0.0"
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.app.test"
        minSdkVersion 24
        targetSdkVersion 26
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
    })
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.+'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

When I change it to the following:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion "26.0.0"
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.app.test"
        minSdkVersion 24
        targetSdkVersion 26
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.+'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    // App's dependencies, including test
    compile 'com.android.support:support-annotations:22.2.0'

    // Testing-only dependencies
    androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.0'
    androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.0'
}

I get the following errors:

Error:(29, 24) Failed to resolve: com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.0
    Install Repository and sync project
Error:(30, 24) Failed to resolve: com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.0
    Install Repository and sync project

I have tried clicking on the "Install repository and sync project" link but nothing happens. I have also tried looking through the SDK manager, but I can't really see anything.

you can downgrade the version, somehow sometimes the targeted version is unavailable from the repo. use IDE-UI to select the latest version:

  1. Right click on your project folder, select Open Module Settings
  2. search for the package you want in the dependencies, for example enter image description here

This way, you'll never get an un available version (of course remember to set proper repo in build.gradle, too)

Simply,
Adding google() into allprojects > repositories will do the trick here...

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
}

As the solution from comment is solving the problem I am adding it as an answer for others:

Be sure to add Google's maven link to main build.gradle file:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
    }
}
