It seems to be a confirmed issue for Intellij IDEA 2018: see this thread. The recommended solution worked fine for me when I was stuck with running unit tests:

As a workaround please manually change the value from $MODULE_DIR$ to %MODULE_WORKING_DIR% for 'Working Directory' in Run/Debug configuration. To change it for all new projects please update Default Run/Debug Configuration.

Hope that helps you as well.
