Everything is of course possible, but at what cost?

In my experience, with large projects, you get to pick 2:

Dynamic typing Development velocity Reliability

I've seen multiple large projects grind to a near halt in their development speed, and I've seen some retain development speed, but unreliably crash after various changes.

UT coverage is expensive. System tests don't catch everything. Either you fear changes, and the system rots, or you work very slowly with coverage for everything.
