The "Big Boys" use tests to gauge when code is production ready, they don't rely on a typing system and call it a day. I've seen monoliths made out of bash serve their purpose for years without a glitch, thanks to tests.
Tests are good too, although you can go overboard. You can write tests in Java or Rust or similar.
