Gradle version: 4.1
Android Plugin Version: 3.0.0-beta2
Module Compile Sdk Version: 26
Module Build Tools Version: 26.0.1
Android SDK Tools version: 26.0.2

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create an Android library module that uses RenderScript via the following configuration in build.gradle:

android {
  ...
  defaultConfig {
    ...
    renderscriptTargetApi 20
    renderscriptSupportModeEnabled true
  }
}

And has the following class:

public class RenderscriptStuff {
  public static RenderScript getRS(Context context) {
    return RenderScript.create(context);
  }
}

2. Create an Android app module that contains the following class in androidTest directory:

@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class) public class ExampleInstrumentedTest {
  @Test public void canGetRS() {
    Context appContext = InstrumentationRegistry.getTargetContext();
    assertNotNull(RenderscriptStuff.getRS(appContext));
  }
}

3. Run the following command from the command line:

./gradlew compileDebugAndroidTestSources

Expected behavior:

- Compilation succeeds

Actual behavior:

- Compilation fails with the following error:

ExampleInstrumentedTest.java:28: error: cannot access RenderScript
    assertNotNull(RenderscriptStuff.getRS(appContext));
                                         ^
  class file for android.support.v8.renderscript.RenderScript not found
