how to resolve Suspension functions can be called only within coroutine body

I am trying to use MockK in my project,

when I try to verify an api call in the interface I get an error

Suspension functions can be called only within coroutine body

this is my code

import com.example.breakingbad.api.ApiServiceInterface
import com.example.breakingbad.data.DataRepository
import io.mockk.impl.annotations.InjectMockKs
import io.mockk.impl.annotations.MockK
import io.mockk.verify
import kotlinx.coroutines.test.runBlockingTest
import org.junit.Test

class DataRepositoryTest {
    @MockK
    private lateinit var apiServiceInterface: ApiServiceInterface

    @InjectMockKs
    private lateinit var dataRepository: DataRepository

    @Test
    fun getCharacters() {
        runBlockingTest {
            val respose = dataRepository.getCharacters()
            verify { apiServiceInterface.getDataFromApi() } // HERE IS THE ERROR
        }
    }
}

DataRepository

class DataRepository @Inject constructor(
    private val apiServiceInterface: ApiServiceInterface
) {
    suspend fun getCharacters(): Result<ArrayList<Character>> = kotlin.runCatching{
        apiServiceInterface.getDataFromApi()
    }
}

interface

interface ApiServiceInterface {
    @GET("api/characters")
    suspend fun getDataFromApi(): ArrayList<Character>
}

what am I doing wrong here?

verify takes a standard function as an argument. You need to use coVerify which takes a suspend function as it’s argument.
