Code Snippet

import { test } from "@playwright/test";

test("dynamic import of ESM", async ({}) => {
  const { default: getPort } = await import("get-port");
  console.log(await getPort());
});

Describe the bug

From the node.js docs

Dynamic import() is supported in both CommonJS and ES modules. In CommonJS modules it can be used to load ES modules.

Yet, trying to load an ESM only package like get-port with a dynamic import statement fails with the error:

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module .../node_modules/get-port/index.js from .../tests/example.spec.ts not supported.
    Instead change the require of index.js in .../tests/example.spec.ts to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

It's complaining I'm trying to use require to load an ESM only module, but as can be seen in the snippet, it's an import().
