Testing Repository?

I might be blind and/or this might be a silly question, but how do I use the "Testing" repository with pacman?  I've checked the wiki and searched the forum (although with little success because it turns out that "testing" is a very common word... go figure).

I also tried to simply uncomment the line in the pacman.conf, but it tells me that that line now has a syntax error (apparently it doesn't like "Server =" but if I try "Include =" it doesn't work either.

Anyone able to shed some light on this?  I'm quite confused.

Nevermind... I'm now officially feeling like a complete arse.. all I had to do was uncomment both the "[testing]" and the line after it...

You say it that way in Canada? I always thought you'd say 'ass' - don't know why, really.

Arse just sounds slightly more elegant (well, at least considering the topic).  A fair amount of people use "ass" around here, but I like "arse".  Then again I'm not a native Canadian.

Does elegant mean something different over there?!

Maybe he's a "lady".
