If previous patterns hold out, there won't be a new testing for a while.

If you always want to run the same version of a particular branch, name
the branch, i.e. stable, frozen, testing, unstable

If you always want to run the same release, name the release, i.e.,
hamm, potato, woody, sid...

One caveat:  sid is *always* unstable now.  I see this as minor
breakage, you can't update to sid and follow it sunrise to sunset like
you could with all distros woody and prior.
