How to install an application from a specific repo?

I knew that pacman will choose repo in the order defined in pacman.conf.

However, I am wondering how to override this. For an example, if App A is in both core and testing, and core precedes testing in pacman.conf.

How can I install App A from testing repo?

thanks
