Around most dynamic languages, there are exceptions like Smalltalk which has excellent tooling including the automated refactoring and the best development environment around. Let's not forget, tools such as automated refactoring and xUnit type test tools originated in Smalltalk.

Also, Eclipse can trace it's roots directly to VisualAge, IBM's Smalltalk based IDE platform (Eclipse began as a rewrite of VisualAge in Java).
