Gradle Espresso finished with non-zero exit value 2

Question

I tried to add espresso as described on their website and after excluding the annotations because of a version mismatch i was able to sync my dependencies.

Now I have got the Problem that I get the following Error message when trying to run my Tests:

This is my code in my gradle file:

    }

        main { java.srcDirs = ['src/main/java', 'src/instrumentTest', 'src/instrumentTest/java'] }
    }
    productFlavors {

}

    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: 'Parse*.jar')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.1.1'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:7.3.0'
    compile 'com.parse.bolts:bolts-android:1.+'
    compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.1.1'
    compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.4'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.1.1'


    androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.0'
    androidTestCompile ('com.android.support.test:runner:0.2')
            {exclude module: "support-annotations"}
}

I hope anyone can help me!! Thanks! :)

This is how my working set up looks like:

dependencies {
    //app dependencies ...

    // Instrumentation tests
    androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-contrib:2.1'
    androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test:rules:0.2'
}

configurations {
    androidTestCompile.exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-v4'
    androidTestCompile.exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'recyclerview-v7'
    androidTestCompile.exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'appcompat-v7'
    androidTestCompile.exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
}

And com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-contrib:2.1 contains both the espresso-core and runner dependencies.
