That would be dependent upon your build environment and how you set it up.  
As in a mock based chroot or a Non-Root build system along with cross-compiler tools etc.
Takes a lot of planing to go along with it also.

For the 3 arches you want they could all be done under mock in a x86_64
environment. Under
Non-Root x86_64 Multilib arch machine can be done also with great care
in how you choose your devel packages.

Automation could be done with a wrapper script setup, really easy to do.
Sometimes you just can not automate every part of it so I would not
expect that.  You would need to do manual checks on the outcome of the
srpm and the binary or build a unit test framework.
