Description
Currently, the github action `docker-practice/actions-setup-docker@v1` is used to install docker on MacOS for the workflows since docker is not baked in for the macos runner image.
However, this action is not reliable and fails to trigger sometimes, causing the tests to run for a long duration, before they timeout.
This issue has been observed previously too https://github.com/docker-practice/actions-setup-docker/issues/19
Possible fix might include installing docker through homebew or switching to podman instead of docker for running tests
