Error:Conflict with dependency 'com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305'

In your app's build.gradle add the following:

android {
    configurations.all {
        resolutionStrategy.force 'com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305:1.3.9'
    }
}

Enforces Gradle to only compile the version number you state for all dependencies, no matter which version number the dependencies have stated.

This is due to espresso. You can add the following to your apps build.grade to mitigate this.

androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2') {
  exclude group: 'com.google.code.findbugs'
}

METHOD 1: I deleted the androidTestCompile on espresso-core line which was automatically included in a new project. Then my Android Studio compiles clean.

The androidTestCompile is in "build.gradle (Module:app)":

dependencies {
    ...
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
    })
    ...
}

I don't know whether this deletion will have any problem down the road, but it surely works for my current project now.

METHOD 2: Adding an exclude on findbugs works too:

dependencies {
    ...
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
        exclude group: 'com.google.code.findbugs'
    })
    ...
}

METHOD 3: Forcing compiling with a specific version:

(In the following I force it to compile with the higher version.)

dependencies {
    ...
    androidTestCompile 'com.google.code.findbugs:jsr305:3.0.0'
    ...
}
