Dagger not see my own generated dependency

Question

I have an issue with Dagger and my own generated code.

Assumptions:

I need to generate my own dagger component for UI tests purpose
I have my own Gradle's module for annotation processing which provides dagger component with dependencies. Call this GeneratedTestCoreComponent. This class is generated correctly
GeneratedTestCoreComponent is built at \build\generated\source\kapt\debug\...
GeneratedTestCoreComponent is used in dagger component, smth like this

@Component(modules = [UiTestModule::class],
    dependencies = [GeneratedTestCoreComponent::class])
interface TestUiComponent {}

My annotation processor module is correctly added to gradle

  implementation project(path: ':processor')
  kapt(name: 'processor')

The issue is. During compilation I get below error

TestUiComponent.java:6: error: cannot find symbol
@com.dagger.Component(modules = {com.xxx.xxx.UiTestModule.class}, dependencies = {GeneratedTestCoreComponent.class})

symbol: class GeneratedTestCoreComponent
TestUiComponent.java:8: error: [ComponentProcessor:MiscError] com.dagger.internal.codegen.ComponentProcessor was unable to process this interface because not all of its dependencies could be resolved. Check for compilation errors or a circular dependency with generated code.
public abstract interface TestUiComponent

Additional info. When I copy GeneratedTestCoreComponent class from build directory to src (keeping the same package) and disable my processor, then everything works fine

Have you tried with testImplementation and kaptTest to add those dependencies to the test variant — User One, May 03 '19 at 10:52
@UserOne I've tried `androidTestImplementation` and `kaptAndroidTest` but it hasn't helped — Dawid Podolak, May 03 '19 at 11:14
@StavroXhardha I use own scopes, but I think it is not an issue. As I mentioned in additional info, it works when I copy this class to src dir — Dawid Podolak, May 03 '19 at 11:16
You want your test component for instrumented test not local so, i had a similar issue in local unit test and this post helped Me https://stackoverflow.com/a/45603080/9884320 — User One, May 03 '19 at 11:18

Try changing kapt(name: 'processor') into kapt project(':processor')
