Any other relevant information

I find myself in situations where it's very useful to debug unit tests with VSCode and placing breakpoints in the code.

• I am also using TypeScript, hence the flag --typescript is passed
• --sourcemaps are also enabled

How can we help?

When I run the test with --inspect it stops in a transpiled readonly copy of the file that I can't edit. For example in the file I see all the require() wrapped by __importDefault(require()).

I tried to provide basic reproduction steps, but the problem doesn't appear.
Do you have any clues what could generate this issue in my current project?
