Thanks for reporting this issue! 🙏 We can see that the Playwright Test Explorer isn't detecting test cases in your workspace, even though it was previously working and functions fine in VS Code — that's definitely frustrating. A maintainer will take a look at this shortly. We appreciate you including the detailed reproduction steps, that really helps us track things down!
