I have upgraded to the latest API level 24 which is the latest API Level (at time of writhing) anyhow it caused this error message.

Error:Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support:support-v4'. Resolved versions for app (24.2.0) and test app (23.1.1) differ. See http://g.co/androidstudio/app-test-app-conflict for details.

So How can I fix this?
Also this page the 2nd answer down gives a solution to the problem but if you want to include com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-contrib:2.2.2 in your then this will lead to 4 more similar error messages.
So How can I get rid of these 4 extra error messages?

Here are my Espresso build.gradle dependencies:

    androidTestCompile "com.android.support:support-annotations:$SUPPORT_VERSION"
    androidTestCompile "com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:$ESPRESSO_VERSION"
    androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test:runner:0.5'
    androidTestCompile "com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-intents:$ESPRESSO_VERSION"
    /**
     * AccessibilityChecks
     * CountingIdlingResource
     * DrawerActions
     * DrawerMatchers
     * PickerActions (Time and Date picker)
     * RecyclerViewActions
     */
    androidTestCompile("com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-contrib:$ESPRESSO_VERSION") {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'appcompat'
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-v4'
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-v7'
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'design'
        exclude module: 'support-annotations'
        exclude module: 'recyclerview-v7'
    }

where:

ESPRESSO_VERSION = '2.2.2'

Check my project's build.gradle file if you still stuck: https://github.com/piotrek1543/LocalWeather/blob/master/app/build.gradle

Hope it will help

I found a solution (workaround) If you click on the picture below you will note look at the picture below you will note that the error message

Error:Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support:support-v4'. Resolved versions for app (24.2.0) and test app (23.1.1) differ. See http://g.co/androidstudio/app-test-app-conflict for details.

will be fixed with the line
configurations.all {resolutionStrategy.force "com.android.support:support-v4:23.1.0"}
Which is located in the dependencies area of the gradle file
Likewise the error message

Error:Conflict with dependency 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7'. Resolved versions for app (24.2.0) and test app (23.1.0) differ. See http://g.co/androidstudio/app-test-app-conflict for details.

can be fixed with the line
configurations.all {resolutionStrategy.force "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.0"} And so on and so fourth until all the errors are solved p.s Don't forget to go here for the main solution (2nd and 3rd answer down

You can force the support library in your test using:

androidTestCompile 'com.android.support:support-v4:24.2.0'
