I think I decided that:
1) When a new stable release comes out, use that
2) When you start to need/want newer things, and the testing release has 
been churning for 6 months to a year, switch to that.

Also, I learned the "hard way" not to use "stable" and "testing" in my 
apt sources.  Much better to use the name of the release, like "sarge"
