convert Jessie stable to pure testing



Hello!

It should be so simple . . .

1) I have a new installation of Debian 8 stable (Jessie).

2) I want to convert it to a pure Debian testing setup, to track testing indefinitely. 

here is my current /etc/apt/sources.list:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.0.0 _Jessie_ - Official Multi-architecture amd64/i386 NETINST #1 20150$

#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.0.0 _Jessie_ - Official Multi-architecture amd64/i386 NETINST #1 201504$

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this what it should be changed to:?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.0.0 _Jessie_ - Official Multi-architecture amd64/i386 NETINST #1 20150$

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.0.0 _Jessie_ - Official Multi-architecture amd64/i386 NETINST #1 20150$

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main

deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing-updates main

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(In the past, i have tried that, and it screwed up my installation.  I don't ever want that to happen again.)
