Yup, agree. Depending if you are working with a good static type system or with a dynamic language the value of unit tests can vary.

When working with dynamic languages I always end up writing a bunch of unit tests and a bunch of integration tests. I've experimented some with type hinting and static analysis in some dynamic languages but it's not the same as having the compiler make guarantees.
