This mainly happens when you copy a library project and try to build it. The solution would be to add

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

in the build.gradle file, instead of

apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

Then do a gradle sync

I fixed this by adding facets in Module settings  They were missing  right click on project   open Module settings   Facets   Add facets       sign at the top     Android  After adding facets you will have modules  UPDATE  For latest version of gradle  Facets have been removed  you can directly add modules now  right click on project   open Module settings   Add module       sign at the top     Phone and Tablet Application  Now you can create a new module and configure it

The following worked for me    edit the overall project s  settings gradle  file and add a line at the bottom to include your new module  include   myNewModule   - e g    include   myNewModule     Synch gradle  Add a build gradle file into your new module directory  You need to make sure the first line says  apply plugin   com android application   Simply copying a build gradle from another module in your project  if you have one  seems to work  Synch Gradle Your module should now show up in  Edit Configurations

I finally figure out why the module is not showed up when I add configuration for AndroidTests for a com android library module   If you include your library module in your application s build gradle like this   compile project   yourlibrary     Since for library module it is compiled with release mode by default  you can t run Android Tests for it  that s why it won t show up in the module list  I fixed it with following modification   Add following configuration to the build gradle of your library module        publishNonDefault true   By make following changes  you can debug compile your library by editing the build gradle of your application module like following   -    compile project   yourlibrary        debugCompile project path    yourlibrary   configuration   debug        releaseCompile project path    yourlibrary   configuration   release     Then sync it and you ll find it shows in the list
