Is it possible to simulate a "Tap" from the console?
If an element is given a synthetic onClick event in React, the element itself can be identified in the DOM from the console in DevTools and a 'click' event simulated. For example (using jQuery for ease of demonstration)
$('[data-qa="some-element"]').click()
Is an equivalent event possible form the console?

Try doing a mouse down then a mouse up event on the element.
