[4.0] Missing helper typings file

[JabX]

Hello,

I wanted to try out the new 4.0 version with Typescript, so I ran the npx codeceptjs init command on a fresh project and chose Typescript, and then ran npx codeceptjs def to generate the definition file.

This is the definition file I got :

/// <reference types='codeceptjs' />
type steps_file = typeof import('./tests/custom-steps');

declare namespace CodeceptJS {
  interface SupportObject { I: I, current: any }
  interface Methods extends Playwright {}
  interface I extends ReturnType<steps_file> {}
  namespace Translation {
    interface Actions {}
  }
}

I have two problems with it :

• The Playwright namespace is nowhere to be found. I checked on a 3.x install and it was in a types.d.ts file in the typings directory, but that file is missing in 4.0.0
• The generated steps_file import is wrong because it doesn't account for the fact that my step file is an ESM module. I found this issue CodeceptJS 4.x: Custom helper type definition created by codeceptjs def doesn't work (Property does not exist on type 'I') #5318 which had the same problem and was apparently fixed a while ago, so it seems strange to me.

Thank you
