Docker tests failed with permission denied error

[zongminl]

Bug Description

There are 2 docker related tests failed with permission denied error, which are: docker/export-and-import_{arch} and docker/save-and-load_{arch}

It's confirmed that both of the tests can be successfully executed manually outside of checkbox, but they will fail with permission denied error when being executed by testing with checkbox snap.

This problem can only be reproduced when docker snap is installed on the DUT, using a deb version of docker (docker.io and docker-compose) this problem is not observed.

To Reproduce

1. Install checkbox snaps

$ sudo snap install checkbox22 --beta
$ sudo snap install checkbox --channel=22.04/beta --classic

2. Execute checkbox tests
   $ checkbox.checkbox-cli run com.canonical.certification::docker_resource com.canonical.certification::docker/export-and-import_arm64 com.canonical.certification::docker/save-and-load_arm64

Environment

• OS: Ubuntu Classic (both of desktop and server can reproduce)
• Checkbox type: snap
• Checkbox version: 4.2.0.dev82

Relevant log output

Test result with docker snap
