Instead of asking people to throw an exception and wait till they see it on their prod Sentry instance, we can ask them to launch spotlight, set $SENTRY_SPOTLIGHT=1 and watch it in Spotlight in realtime. This would also verify tracing and distributed tracing setups too.

The only caveat is, it wouldn't cover if you put your DSN incorrectly.

Since we already run sentry-wizard through npx, it makes sense to add npx @spotlightjs/spotlight as a final step with SENTRY_SPOTLIGHT=1 to verify the setup. This is especially useful for projects with distributed tracing.
