Add this to build.gradle after android DSL:

android {
    ...
}

android.applicationVariants.all {
    def aptOutputDir = new File(buildDir, "generated/source/apt/${it.unitTestVariant.dirName}")
    it.unitTestVariant.addJavaSourceFoldersToModel(aptOutputDir)
}

Thereafter, your test component would be recognized.

For Kotlin replace generated/source/apt/... with generated/source/kapt/...

There is an issue raised in the tracker concerning this.
