Verify crash report files exist before allowing app releases to merge

Automatically checks that crash-report files are uploaded before a new commit is allowed to merge.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Your engineering team relies on crash reports to fix problems after the app ships, but those reports only work if the right debug files were uploaded first. When someone forgets, you find out only after a crash happens and the report is unreadable.

Who it fits

Mobile app teams that use Sentry for crash reporting and want a safety check before code ships.

How it works

  1. A new commit is pushed to your code repository
  2. The system checks Sentry for the matching release
  3. It confirms whether the required crash-report files were uploaded
  4. The commit is marked as safe to merge once everything is complete
What you get

Releases that ship with working crash reporting

It checks that crash reporting is properly wired up before a new version of your app goes out the door.

What you get

A pass or fail status on each commit showing whether crash-report files are complete.

What you need

A GitHub account and a Sentry account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
