Fire events the same way the user does

async function type(element, text, { skipClick = this.config.skipClick, skipAutoClose = this.config.skipAutoClose, initialSelectionStart, initialSelectionEnd } = {}) {
    // TODO: properly type guard
    // we use this workaround for now to prevent changing behavior
    if (element.disabled) return;
    if (!skipClick) {
        await this.click(element);
    }

    }
    await this.keyboard(text);
    if (!skipAutoClose) {

    }
}
