Laravel Brower Test (Dusk) error on MacOS (Docker): Failed to connect on localhost port 9515: connection refused

I just installed Laravel's Dusk to add browser tests. However, when I run a test, I get a Failed to connect on localhost port 9515: connection refused error.

I checked online and it seems like a lot of people are having the same issue. I came across few solutions e.g. this but it seems like they are all for Windows and Homestead whilst I am running my project on MacOS and Docker.

I did try to follow the solution but I found out sudo apt is not available for MacOS. I then installed Homebrew and tried to run the commands starting with brew instead of sudo apt but it responds saying no formula available for the name.

I would really appreciate it if you could recommend a solution or source I could look at. Thank you
