Unable to run any Robolectric test on M1 mac

When I run a Robolectric test it crashes on its beginning with stack trace like this

This is an upstream issue with Application Services, which you can track the status of with this issue.

The current workaround is to run the tests using a JDK compiled for an x86_64 architecture instead of one compiled for an aarch64 architecture. You can see more details about how to do that in this comment
