I'm trying to run a JUnit test using Testcontainers on my MacOs running Rancher Desktop. The docker CLI works fine as I can run any container using docker run.
The source code of the JUnit test looks as follows (simplified and shortened):
@Testcontainers
class FactoryDiscoveryDataIT {
@Container
private static final PostgreSQLContainer POSTGRES_CONTAINER = new PostgreSQLContainer("postgres:11.11-alpine")
.withDatabaseName("psql-link-test");
The error message is the following:
2023-03-08 08:14:28,816 ERROR [main] org.testcontainers.dockerclient.DockerClientProviderStrategy: Could not find a valid Docker environment. Please check configuration. Attempted configurations were:

I'm quite sure the code is correct, as it works with my minikube config. For minikube I can set the env variables exported by minikube docker-env to use minikube as a build environment, which works fine.
Is there a similar solution for Rancher Desktop? Is there any other way to let JUnit Testcontainers use my Rancher Desktop installation?
This issue is unrelated to JUnit, it is about configuring Testcontainers for Rancher Desktop.
Other Testcontainers users report, that Rancher Desktop works out of the box once it is configured correctly (switch to Moby container runtime) since it creates a socket on the host at /var/run/docker.sock, so make sure to not have any of the Testcontainers environment variable configs set.
