Release Risk Audit
Find release risks before

The gap
Most teams ship with invisible release risk.
Before audit
CI green
Pipeline passes but nobody knows what it protects.
QA unclear
Smoke coverage gaps and manual steps are invisible.
Checklist tribal
Release steps live in someone's head, not a shared system.
Risk hidden
GO / NO-GO decisions based on feeling, not signals.
After audit
Top risks ranked
Prioritised list of gaps ranked by release impact.
GO / CONDITIONAL GO / NO-GO
Clear recommendation based on your actual signals.
7-day action plan
Concrete fixes you can start this week.
Sample output
Risk level: CONDITIONAL GO
Top issue: No smoke coverage for a critical path
Recommended fix: Add targeted smoke tests before launch
7-day action: Branch protection + release checklist + rollback owner
Illustrative example — not a client result.

FAQ
Common questions.
Do you need repository access?
No. I review based on what you share: PR process description, CI config screenshots, release checklist samples, and any test coverage info you can provide. No code access required.
What if we do not have automated tests?
That is exactly what the audit identifies as risk. You will get specific recommendations on what smoke tests to add first, ranked by impact on your release safety.
Is this the same as Dulvarn SaaS?
No. This is a one-time manual audit. Dulvarn Release Control (SaaS) is the automation platform that implements these recommendations. Many teams start with the audit, then migrate to the SaaS.
Do you implement fixes?
The audit delivers a report and action plan. Implementation is your team's work or a separate engagement. The Release Risk + Automation Starter includes one basic automation example to get you started.
How fast do we get the report?
Quick Audit: 48 hours. Full Sprint: 72 hours. Automation Starter: 5 days after receiving all context.
What happens after the audit?
You get a written report with GO / CONDITIONAL GO / NO-GO summary, 7-day action plan, and optional next steps. I am available for follow-up questions via email for 7 days.
Can this help before a launch?
Yes. This is designed for teams preparing for beta, public launch, or major release. The audit finds gaps before users do.
Can we start without a call?
Yes. Book via email and send your context async. All delivery is written. The optional review call is only for Full Sprint and Automation Starter tiers.
Founder note
Dulvarn is an independent project focused on release risk, QA workflows and practical automation tools for small software teams. This audit is the practical first step: I review your current release process, find the biggest risks, and give you a clear action plan before you scale the chaos.
