Many libvirt-tck tests do not explicitly cleanup test domains before exiting.
In this case Sys::Virt::TCK->cleanup is triggered, and the environment is
reset automatically. During this reset, any existing snapshots are found for
deletion through Sys::Virt::Domain->list_snapshots. If the underlying
connection driver does not support snapshot functions (such as lxc or libxl),
the process dies with the following error:
libvirt error code: 3, message: this function is not supported by the
connection driver: virDomainSnapshotListNames
The best resolution would be to add snapshot support to the driver(s), but as
this requires a long term effort, it is better to catch the error and return
an empty list of snapshots to the calling function. In the case of
libvirt-tck, this allows the cleanup to succeed and subsequent testing to
continue normally.
