=== Mock: Testing BuildRequires ===
 
It's often difficult to get the BuildRequires in a spec file exactly right, because it's easy to overlook packages that are coincidentally installed on the machine. ''Mock'' is used to test that the BuildRequires for a package are complete and accurate, by creating a bare-bones [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot chroot] environment containing only the [[:fedora:Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions_2|basic build packages]] plus any packages indicated by BuildRequires lines in the spec file.
 
=== Koji: Testing on Multiple Architectures ===
 
Most developers and packagers have access to only a small number of system architectures (for example, a developer might have access to 64-bit AMD/Intel, but not have access to 32-bit AMD/Intel, s390 mainframe, PowerPC, or ARM systems). The ''Koji'' build system provides a mechanism for building a package in mock on one or more remote systems.
