You can get access into the chrooted environment and install packages within it, although if you want to test complex systems (which probably means anything X-like) then it will probably be insufficient. mach can be found at http://thomas.apestaart.org/projects/mach/ I believe there is a port within Fedora Extras, and there is some information about it within the Fedora Wiki. The current version is 0.4.7 and includes support for yum repositories (which works better for me).
