No, this works, but not the way you expect ... apt will want to upgrade all your packages to the versions available in testing. There's a way to prevent this using the pinning feature of apt. I haven't tried it yet; there was a post how within the past month either here or d-devel. This allows you to stay at testing but install cerain packages from unstable (for example).
