User23's answer is close to the solution that worked for me.

According to the official documentation you have to do the following things to activate Mockito in your Android app:

1. Download dexmaker-1.4.jar and dexmaker-mockito-1.4.jar and put them into your libs folder.

2. Add the following dependencies into your build.gradle:

   androidTestCompile "org.mockito:mockito-core:1.10.19"
androidTestCompile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['dexmaker-1.4.jar']) androidTestCompile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['dexmaker-mockito-1.4.jar'])
