title: java.lang.VerifyError when running Android tests with testCoverageEnabled = true
body: <p>I've recently tried the new Jacoco code coverage feature for Android Gradle plugin, and unfortunately it makes my tests fail with the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code> java.lang.VerifyError: com/foo/bar/rest/SomeClass at
   com.foo.bar.test.rest.BaseTest.setUp(BaseTest.java:87) at
   android.test.AndroidTestRunner.runTest(AndroidTestRunner.java:190) at
   android.test.AndroidTestRunner.runTest(AndroidTestRunner.java:175) at
   android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner.onStart(InstrumentationTestRunner.java:555)
   at
   android.app.Instrumentation$InstrumentationThread.run(Instrumentation.java:1584)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I enabled the code coverage using these lines in build.gradle:</p>
  
  <pre><code> buildTypes {
  
           debug {
               testCoverageEnabled = true
           } 
  ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Has anyone encountered the same problem?</p>
