Its possible to monitor your builds and rollbacks using prometheus and prometheus-pushgateway. To enable specify the pushgateway_url setting.

Example alertrule:

          - alert: Helm3RolloutFailed
            expr: |
              drone_helm3_build_status{status!="success"}
            labels:
              severity: critical
            annotations:
              summary: >-
                Helm3 was unable to deploy {{ $labels.repo }} as
                {{ $labels.release }} into namespace {{ $labels.namespace }}
              action: >-
                Validate the `deploy` step of the last drone ci run for this
                repository. Either the build has *failed entirely* or the
                `helm test` did fail. For more information on tests see
                https://github.com/bitsbeats/drone-helm3/#monitoring

Helm Tests

Helm tests are special Pods that have the "helm.sh/hook": test annotation set. If the command in the docker container returns an exitcode > 0 the drone step will be marked as failed. See the Helm documentation.

In addition you can set the test_rollback setting to run helm rollback if the tests fail.
