The project 'test-dev' does not exist or it does not contain an active Cloud Datastore database

I am trying to run the test for project created in google cloud, but i am facing below error,

Error: The project 'test-dev' does not exist or it does not contain an active Cloud Datastore database. 
Please visit http://console.cloud.google.com to create a project or https://console.cloud.google.com/datastore/setup?project=test-dev to add a Cloud Datastore database. 
Note that Cloud Datastore always has an associated App Engine app and this app must not be disabled.

Anybody face this error ever before, and how to fix this?

Yes, I encountered exactly the same error when trying to follow one of the Python on Google Compute Engine tutorials:

https://cloud.google.com/python/tutorials/bookshelf-on-compute-engine

Fortunately, your error message (where "test-dev" is the project name):

Please visit http://console.cloud.google.com to create a project
or https://console.cloud.google.com/datastore/setup?project=test-dev
to add a Cloud Datastore database.

Tells you exactly what do be done: click on the second link, and set up a Cloud Datastore, under your chosen project name. The tutorial I was following seemed to assume that one would be set up immediately (which it wasn't). Make that database, and things should be well (or better).

Note: for November 2018, you might get something like "Cloud Datastore or Cloud Firestore": you may be prompted for both. I chose Datastore, as Firestore is beta.

I had this problem when following the Datastore API tutorial: https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/datastore-api-tutorial

My problem went away when I re-defined the project id as a new project's ID. In the case of the tutorial I set DATASTORE_PROJECT_ID=NEW_ID
