Upon revisiting the article, I am downvoting your comment. Your objection is addressed in the very passage you cite, you merely truncated it misleadingly (and incorrectly - changes made to a quote should be placed in square brackets, and a move from an ellipsis to a period is a change). The truncated portion reads: "It's interesting to note that the whole TDD movement comes from people who are working in dynamically typed languages... I'm not saying that unit testing is a bad idea with static types; only that it's entirely appropriate to scale it back a little.)"
