schroot is the standard chroot tool, which has a lot of useful scriptability and standard configs to set up all the 'extra' bits you need these days beyond a plain chroot to do uesufl work (copying network and nss config in, bind-mounting /sys /proc /dev etc.) It also has session management so you stop and re-start a chrooted environment. There are also linux containers, I understand, but I know nothing about that.
