[Bug]: Exception when using functions (tests are run in a infinite loop)

[ydkL]

Version

1.43.1

Steps to reproduce

1. Clone my repo https://github.com/ydkL/playwrightExamples.git
2. npm install
3. npx playwright test ./tests/exercise_1.spec.js
4. You should see the error come up

Expected behavior

I expected test run without any error.

Actual behavior

I use a function call like a pre condition in my test(exercise_1.spec.js). All steps are run, After steps finished, test run is starting again and a bug happened.

Additional context

When I write this case without using extra function (exercise_1_man.spec.js), no error occurs.

Inside your code there is a commonFuncs.goto(); which you don't await which is causing such behaviour. We recommend TypeScript in combination with this ESLint plugin in order to prevent such issues.
