Maintainer of tsx here.

tsx should be able to handle Playwright as of v4+, and hopefully the test coverage you're referring to.

Before, it was compiling ESM syntax to CJS as an effort to ease the ecosystem's CJS -> ESM migration, and hiccuping whenever it encountered `eval()`. Now it includes smarter checks to determine if a file needs to be compiled at all and skips processing most dependencies.

Hope it works well for you!

I see v4 was published just 12 days ago. I'll have to give it another shot! Thanks!

Can confirm we use tsx with playwright with no issues. Thanks!
