Can you specify how you're adding app/src/androidTest/res/values/strings.xml? The UI doesn't seem to let you do this; when adding new resource files (even when right-clicking on the androidTest folder), it still drops the files under the standard source location.
You may be able to manually create a strings.xml file in that location, but I don't think it'll build correctly.
It may be helpful if you could attach an example project that showcases this issue.

Here is a project that reproduces the issue. Please use F Beta1 to open it and run ExampleInstrumentedTest. It'll print something like:
01-19 11:42:40.068 7889 7913 I TestRunner: started: useAppContext(com.example.myapplication.ExampleInstrumentedTest)
01-19 11:42:40.074 7889 7913 I System.out: HelloTestApp
01-19 11:42:40.074 7889 7913 I TestRunner: finished: useAppContext(com.example.myapplication.ExampleInstrumentedTest)
WRT adding app/src/androidTest/res/values/strings.xml, the instrumented test resources are supported by AGP and the platform. Also, do note that we support symbol resolution (com.example.myapplication.test.R.string.test_app_name resolves).
Sidenote: the fact that UI does not list androidTest source set (it only suggests main, debug, relase) is another bug -
