[Bug]: slowMo option not slowing down commands

[basickarl]

Version

1.43.1

Steps to reproduce

launch options object (file: playwright-component-testing.config.ts):

    launchOptions: {
      // 1
      args: ['--start-maximized'],
      slowMo: 2000,
    },

command run:
npx --no playwright test -c playwright-component-testing.config.ts audit --workers 1 --project='chromium' --trace='on' --ui

Result in UI:

Expected behavior

Every playwright command slows down by 2000ms (e.g. page.exposeFunction etc.) .

Actual behavior

Only the before hooks seems to slow down by 2000ms.

Additional context

using @playwright/experimental-ct-react

Been reading https://playwright.dev/docs/debug#headed-mode and I'm seeming to follow what it says or?

Environment

npx envinfo --preset playwright

Only "user actions" are slowed down, see this list.

Only "user actions" are slowed down, see this list.

That is interesting! We are using a locator click event:

We are triggering this via the following command: await page.getByTestId('ndl-drawer-close-button').click();

Would this not constitute as being a "user action"?

Same issue, click is obviously a user action, and is not being slowed down.
