This is a good question. Everyone aspires to have a good test suite but if you are building an MVP with limited time and resources you can get by using a service like https://sentry.io/ https://sentry.io/
It will email you a stack trace whenever an error occurs and also keeps a log of them which you can order by frequency and so on. It's an extremely useful service.
When you get bigger and have regular users and need stability then tests start to become important so that you don't break existing things when rolling out new features.
Not having tests comes with a risk though. For example, I once broke our registration flow and didn't know about it for a week. Flipside is we hardly had any users registering at that point. So it's probably a good idea to cover a few of your core user journeys. Hope that helps!
