Building a clean chroot with [testing] enabled [SOLVED]

Probably missed this somewhere but is there built in method to create a clean chroot with [testing] enabled?  I know I can use a custom pacman.conf but seems like a dirty hack.

$ sudo mkarchroot $CHROOT/root base base-devel sudo

testing-x86_64-build from devtools? If you're going to not use that, then you'll need a separate pacman config with testing enabled. There isn't any other way to do it.

OK, thanks D.  I'll just use the -C and -M switches.
