Not "stable", no. If you use "testing" instead of a code name you will

effectively have a rolling release, but it will be a very rocky ride for
about a month after Jessie becomes Stable.

I don't understand it clearly !
I have an simple understanding of Debian development mode !
Jessie ------>> (after a frozen time)
testing stable
I think if I use "stable" or "testing" ,I will sync with corresponding
version , is it ?

I think that you have got something wrong. But I am not sure I can
explain this. Let's try.
1. Currently you can use "testing" and "jessie" interchangeably. It is
suggested that you only use one of them and usually the right choice
would be the "jessie" instead of "testing".
2. When the new Debian stable will be released it will be "Debian 8,
codename: Jessie".
3. After the release if you have "jessie" on your /etc/apt/sources.list
file then you will be running stable. So after the release of the new
Debian stable the words "jessie" and "stable" can be used interchangeably.
4. But if you have "testing" then you will continue to run testing which
will then have another codename, Stretch. In other words after the
release of Debian 8, codename: Jessie as the new Debian stable the words
"testing" and "stretch" will be able to be used interchangeably.
5. I guess one could claim that "testing" is a rolling release (which it
is almost true in it's Debian way and when not on freeze). But using the
This is good and it solves my direct problem !
codename (jessie or stretch or whatever) will not get you rolling in any
sense.
