Description

When I run the command `./gradlew :app:connectedAndroidTest -Pdropshots.record` I get the following error:
```
* What went wrong:
A problem was found with the configuration of task ':app:updateDebugAndroidTestScreenshots' (type 'PullScreenshotsTask').
- Gradle detected a problem with the following location: '.../src/androidTest/screenshots'.

Reason: Task ':app:mergeBaseDebugAndroidTestAssets' uses this output of task ':app:updateDebugAndroidTestScreenshots' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed.

Possible solutions:
1. Declare task ':app:updateDebugAndroidTestScreenshots' as an input of ':app:mergeBaseDebugAndroidTestAssets'.
2. Declare an explicit dependency on ':app:updateDebugAndroidTestScreenshots' from ':app:mergeBaseDebugAndroidTestAssets' using Task#dependsOn.
3. Declare an explicit dependency on ':app:updateDebugAndroidTestScreenshots' from ':app:mergeBaseDebugAndroidTestAssets' using Task#mustRunAfter.

```
How ever, the screenshots are done as expected. Still have to manually delete the screenshots folder in order to have them generated while this error is happening.
