I don't think the frontend/backend makes a difference here - to me it's all about developer productivity. In some instances I feel like the amount of time I'm spending (sometimes double or triple just to get a complex function typed well) is not worth the potential amount of time I might be saving (couple minutes of debugging with well-written tests, maybe).
At the end of the day, if it works well for you - great! Regardless, my message is just one of caution and proper evaluation, and not letting the hype get to you. :)
