My script only accepts srpms. I only use it for situations when I need 
to run a series of test builds that need to be non-scratch (for me this 
happens when I need to bootstrap a build environment or sometimes I just 
need the test build in the system so that another tool can access it 
that way).

I believe Fedora rel-eng has a mass rebuild script that includes a 
release bump.

Scratch builds work /exactly/ like regular builds, except that they are 
not imported into the system afterwards. If you just want to test 
whether the builders can build, this is probably what you want.
