Steps

• Start the playwright UI
• Try to run my test with the "play" icon

Expected

I expect my test to start, and complete /or fail giving me revelant information.

Actual

My test immediately fails (it was working fine yesterday) and point to an import which absolutly correct with an error that mention a file that I didn't have control of :

Running 1 test using 1 worker
  1) [chromium] › resale/resale-x32.spec.ts:56:7 › I can add more than one item to sell cart 

    Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/var/folders/4l/025bhv0n53d2fnsjwj8077600000gn/T/playwright-transform-cache-501/49/Consent_4917612e01561eea77dd7b2a1d7550fb38e705ca.js'

      2 |
      3 | import { test, expect } from "../../fixtures/coverage/baseFixtures";
    > 4 | import { Consent } from "../../utilities/Consent"; // this path is correct, and had been working nicely since multiple months
        | ^
      5 | import URL from "../../libs/previewUrlTransform";
      6 | import { Locator, Page } from "@playwright/test";
      7 |

It seems to be caching issues, but not the of the way to get out of it.

EDIT: Just seen from your discord that 4 other people seem to had the same issue.

Hello, I have encountered the same issue. It was working yesterday but not today, with the same Playwright version being 1.38.1. However, I’ve resolved this issue by upgrading to version 1.39.0. I hope this can help you.

[viraxslot]

Same issue for me. Resolved with the update to 1.39.0 version.

Playwright Version: 1.38.1
Operating System: macOS Sonoma 14.0
Browser: Chromium
Other info: node 18.18

Error message:

  1) [chromium] › **.spec.ts:15:9 › ** suite @smoke › Common checks › should show **

I was having this issue in 1.39.0 also. Removing the /var/folders/<path>/playwright-transform-cache-501 folder fixed it for me.

Waiting for 1.40.0 for proper fix.

I was also experiencing a weird time with a similar error and removing the /var/folders/g3/53p2r2293bx02823n4_0v4s40000gq/T/playwright-transform-cache-503 fixed it for me.

Version working on: "1.38.1"
