jakewharton Espresso Idling Resource won't import

Issue

I'm writing tests using okhttp3, mockwebserver, and retrofit2 in Android/Kotlin.

Everything I look up tells me to use the jakewharton idling resource, but it will not import into my project.

I got the info straight from Jake Wharton's github

Screenshot of my build.gradle

1. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
2. Are there decent alternatives to adding this type of idle resource to my test suite?

Solution

It looks like the build.gradle dependencies no longer support androidTestCompile.

The dependency should switch from:

androidTestCompile 'com.jakewharton.espresso:okhttp3-idling-resource:1.0.0'

to

androidTestImplementation 'com.jakewharton.espresso:okhttp3-idling-resource:1.0.0'
