Release smoke test

Run a small, repeatable smoke test before each release

A release smoke test should answer whether the critical path is alive after a deploy. ReleaseTraq makes that flow project-based: check the release, repair blockers, recheck, then watch the targets that matter.

What ReleaseTraq reviews

Release readiness with inspectable evidence

These pages focus on Launch Acceptance: scope review, business flow acceptance, handoff checklist, risk review, and client sign-off report evidence.

Critical paths first

For small teams, the best smoke test is narrow: validate the URLs and endpoints that would immediately block revenue, onboarding, or support.

Homepage or app entry URL
API health and version endpoint
Checkout or payment callback URL
Webhook and background job heartbeat URL

Evidence instead of vibes

A useful smoke test produces a record: what passed, what failed, what changed after the recheck, and what should be watched after launch.

Readiness score and launch decision
Blockers, warnings, and passed findings
Recheck comparison for resolved and new findings
Disclaimer that reports reduce risk but do not guarantee a perfect launch

Designed for AI-built apps

AI-built apps still need external verification. ReleaseTraq gives coding agents and human developers concrete evidence instead of vague release notes.

Repair Prompts for launch blockers
Handoff checklist items when a flow needs review
Sign-off criteria based on accepted evidence
No automatic code changes or unsafe production actions
Workflow

From launch scope to client sign-off

01

Define the smoke scope

Pick the few endpoints that must work for the release to be safe.

02

Run Full Launch Cycle

Store the report and make blockers visible before rollout.

03

Recheck after fixes

Confirm the same scope after code or configuration changes.

04

Complete handoff

Use the same targets as evidence for risk review and client sign-off.

Plan fit

Use launch acceptance without changing your delivery process

Some customers need a one-time scope review. Others need a reusable Client Handoff checklist and risk review. Paid ReleaseTraq plans connect the pieces into evidence-backed sign-off.

FAQ

Common questions

Is this the same as Playwright E2E testing?

No. ReleaseTraq checks public release targets from the outside. It complements full browser E2E suites rather than replacing deep UI automation.

Can it run before every deploy?

Use Basic Launch Checks for lightweight validation and Full Launch Cycles when you need a stored report, recheck, and repair workflow.

What happens after the smoke test passes?

You can complete the handoff checklist, review accepted risks, and generate a client sign-off report from the same critical targets.
