fedora-review is a tool and a package with the same name. You simply point
it at a bugzilla ticket number using its -b option and let it download
the latest src.rpm and spec file. It performs local builds in Mock and
runs many checks on the spec file and the results. Its output is not
complete, however, so you will need to read it carefully and attempt at
competing the missing tests yourself.

A primary step when reviewing packages is to clear your mind and think
about how you would create the package. Then, what you find in the
submitted package someone else has created, is it plausible?
A next step would be to look up individual packaging scenarios in
the guidelines. Such as if the package includes shared libraries, what
do the guidelines tell about shared libs? And so on.
