The problem is suppose the tests need tool or framework 'X' in order to run the tests. If I was using RPM %check, then I would add: BuildRequires: X But (I assume?) BuildRequires won't be installed in this testing environment, so I now have to add instead: Requires: X That has obvious problems. > The TestRequires is interesting idea, too, FTR mentioned in rhbz#1134397.
