It depends on the goal of the test. Is the test looking to see if the
probe fails with insufficient permissions, then you are changing the
test to not check for that condition.

I would say in this case, the right approach would be to leave the test
as is and report expected fail and add other cases.

The goal being adding more coverage and not necessarily opt for a simple
solution.
