[Bug] Test Failing Due to Inability to Recognize Running Docker Daemon

[hs094]

Current behavior

I am encountering an issue where tests are failing because the Docker Daemon cannot be recognized. Below is the relevant log trace:

18:32:26.686 [pool-275-thread-15] ERROR org.testcontainers.dockerclient.DockerClientProviderStrategy - Could not find a valid Docker environment. Please check configuration. Attempted configurations were:
    UnixSocketClientProviderStrategy: failed with exception InvalidConfigurationException (Could not find unix domain socket). Root cause NoSuchFileException (/var/run/docker.sock)
    DockerDesktopClientProviderStrategy: failed with exception NullPointerException (Cannot invoke "java.nio.file.Path.toString()" because the return value of "org.testcontainers.dockerclient.DockerDesktopClientProviderStrategy.getSocketPath()" is null)
As no valid configuration was found, execution cannot continue.

The tests fail with errors indicating that a valid Docker environment could not be found.

Expected Behavior

The tests should recognize the Docker Daemon and start the required containers without errors.
