I have also encounter the same problem when using expo to create a react-native project.

Below is the steps to reproduce the bug,

expo init

choose minimal template, then run the following command

npm install --save react-native-testfairy
cd android && gradle assemble

The error is

> Task :app:compressReleaseAssets
Execution optimizations have been disabled for task ':app:compressReleaseAssets' to ensure correctness due to the following reasons:
  - Gradle detected a problem with the following location: '/Users/qdang/Desktop/Vinh/test/test-fairy-android/android/app/build/intermediates/assets/release/mergeReleaseAssets'. Reason: Task ':app:compressReleaseAssets' uses this output of task ':app:copyReleaseBundledJs' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed. Please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/7.5.1/userguide/validation_problems.html#implicit_dependency for more details about this problem.
