Personally I prefer automated testing to tell me if a feature has gone badly wrong, not conversion numbers. Then I find out before I launch too.

Or do you mean that the UX is so badly designed the users cannot use your software anymore? In which case, maybe there are bigger problems than real time analytics

This approach is for bugs that testing can't / won't pick up, you should be doing both.
