Description

Issue While Runnig Intrumentation Test : com.android.tools.r8.internal.YI0: Records are not supported

### Description: I encountered an issue while running Android Instrumentation tests. The error message I received is as follows:

**com.android.tools.r8.internal.YI0: Records are not supported**

This error is impacting the execution of my instrumentation tests and preventing them from running successfully.

### Steps to Reproduce:

Set up an Android project with instrumentation tests.
Configure and run the instrumentation tests using the required setup.
Observe the mentioned error message during the test execution.

### Expected Result:
The instrumentation tests should run without encountering the "Records are not supported" error.

#### Actual Result:
The error "com.android.tools.r8.internal.YI0: Records are not supported" occurs during the test execution, causing the tests to fail.

### Environment:

Android Studio version: Android Studio Giraffe | 2022.3.1 Patch 1
Android Gradle Plugin version: [Your AGP version](com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.4)
Java version: [Java 11]
Android SDK version: [33]
Gradle version: [3.6.4]

Additional Information:

Please let me know if there are any workarounds or solutions available to address this issue. If there are any further details required from my end to investigate or resolve the problem, please inform me.

### Recommended warning:

We recommend using a newer Android Gradle plugin to use compileSdk = 33

This Android Gradle plugin (7.1.3) was tested up to compileSdk = 32

This warning can be suppressed by adding
android.suppressUnsupportedCompileSdk=33
to this project's gradle.properties

The build will continue, but you are strongly encouraged to update your project to
use a newer Android Gradle Plugin that has been tested with compileSdk = 33
