Running tests with Android Studio

Question

I am following guide from this official site: https://developer.android.com/training/testing/espresso/setup.html#running-tests

To create a test configuration in Android Studio, complete the following steps:

Open Run > Edit Configurations.
Add a new Android Tests configuration.
Choose a module.
Add a specific instrumentation runner:
android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner
Run the newly created configuration.

now, 1. is OK, but where in 2. is "Android Tests" configuration?? I can add "Android Instrumented Tests", but then where can I add "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner" in 5.?

android docs are really bad. I hardly ever use them.

For 2, see below. This is not necessary for AS2.3 and above. If your Instrumentation tests inside androidTest folder, just right-click on the test name and select Run.

For 5, You need to add this in your gradle script as below.

android {
     compileSdkVersion  .........
     buildToolsVersion  .........

     defaultConfig {
       minSdkVersion .....
       targetSdkVersion .....
       testApplicationId = 'your.package.name.test'
       testInstrumentationRunner = "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"   
     }
}
