Remove additional tsc compilation step when running Playwright tests

[Marcarrian]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

To run Playwright tests, we first manually compile tests with Typescript. Playwright supports Typescript with ESM, so this additional compilation step is not required.

Describe the solution you'd like

Opt into using Typescript with ESM and remove additional tsc compilation step.

The additional compilation step is required because we use TypeScript strict, which is not supported by Playwright.
