I find this confusing and hope to clear it up. According to emerge/portage man pages we have stable keywords (ARCH) and unstable packages (~ARCH) while the handbook[1] says we have stable keywords (ARCH) and testing keywords (~ARCH). I think the handbook is more accurate:
"The testing branch is exactly what it says - Testing. If a package is in testing, it means that the developers feel that it is functional but has not been thoroughly tested. You could very well be the first to discover a bug in the package in which case you could file a bugreport to let the developers know about it."
