Instrumentation run failed due to 'Process crashed.'

I wanted to run the following test:

package com.xxx.yyy;

import android.content.Context;
import androidx.test.InstrumentationRegistry;
import androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnit4;

import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

import static org.junit.Assert.*;

/**
 * Instrumented test, which will execute on an Android device.
 *
 * @see <a href="http://d.android.com/tools/testing">Testing documentation</a>
 */
@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class)
public class ExampleInstrumentedTest {
    @Test
    public void useAppContext() {
        // Context of the app under test.
        Context appContext = InstrumentationRegistry.getTargetContext();

        assertEquals("com.xxx.yyy", appContext.getPackageName());
    }
}

But I get the error in the console:

$ adb shell am instrument -w -r   -e debug false -e class 'com.xxx.yyy.ExampleInstrumentedTest' com.xxx.yyy.test/android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner
Client not ready yet..
Started running tests
Test running failed: Instrumentation run failed due to 'Process crashed.'
Empty test suite.

I can not figgure out why its not working.

Here is my gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'

apply plugin: 'org.greenrobot.greendao' // das kann dann später weg
//apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt' // if using Kotlin
//apply plugin: 'io.objectbox'
