my ViewModel class where I have implemented viewmodel logic

@HiltViewModel
class GiphyTaskViewModel
@Inject
constructor(private val giphyTaskRepository: GiphyTaskRepository):ViewModel()
{
var giphyresponse=MutableLiveData<List>()

fun getGifsFromText(apikey:String,text:String,limit:Int)= viewModelScope.launch {
    giphyTaskRepository.getGifsFromText(apikey,text,limit).let { response->
        if(response.isSuccessful){
            var list=response.body()?.data
            giphyresponse.postValue(list)
        }else{
            Log.d("TAG", "getGifsFromText: ${response.message()}");
        }

    }
}

}

below Repository class

class GiphyTaskRepository
@Inject
constructor(private val giphyTaskApiService: GiphyTaskApiService)
{

suspend fun getGifsFromText(apikey:String,text:String,limit:Int)=
    giphyTaskApiService.getGifsFromText(apikey,text,limit)

}

below interface class

interface GiphyTaskApiService {

    @GET("gifs/search")
    suspend fun getGifsFromText(
        @Query("api_key") api_key:String,
        @Query("q") q:String ,
        @Query("limit") limit:Int
    ):Response<GiphyResponse>
}

below my ViewModel test class

@ExperimentalCoroutinesApi
@RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner::class)
class GiphyTaskViewModelTest {

    @Mock
    private lateinit var apiUsersObserver: Observer<List<DataItem>>


    @RegisterExtension
    @JvmField
    @get:Rule
    val testInstantTaskExecutorRule: TestRule = InstantTaskExecutorRule()

    @get:Rule
   val testCoroutineRule = TestCoroutineRule()
    @Mock
    lateinit var giphyTaskViewModel:GiphyTaskViewModel

    @Mock
     lateinit var  giphyTaskRepository:GiphyTaskRepository


    @Before
    fun setUp() {
          giphyTaskViewModel = GiphyTaskViewModel(giphyTaskRepository)
        }

    @Test
    fun onCreation_fetchUserApiCalled_dataSavedToLiveData() {
        runBlocking {



             giphyTaskViewModel.getGifsFromText("WGFWtAdbnXbmeY3fSY2x9VkFXohNBJHd", "q", 1)
            verify(giphyTaskRepository).getGifsFromText("WGFWtAdbnXbmeY3fSY2x9VkFXohNBJHd", "q", 1)
            giphyTaskViewModel.giphyresponse.observeForever(apiUsersObserver)
            assertNotNull(giphyTaskViewModel.giphyresponse.value)

            


        }
    }



}

I want to know where exactly I am making mistake what I have to inorder to pass the tests
