NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Landroidx/tracing/Trace-CodePudding

When I start a basic androidTest my app crashes:

@Test
fun myTest() {
    val scenario = ActivityScenario.launch(MainActivity::class.java)
    // ...
}

This is the stacktrace:

The following dependencies cause the problem:

androidTestImplementation 'androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-extensions:2.2.0'
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-process:2.4.0'
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime-ktx:2.3.1'
