Debian testing doesn't have a rolling-release model. There have been
some proposals to make it so but they didn't pan out.

Using Ubuntu's development version is closer to a rolling release
because you'll have to be on the latest release for a short period
post-release - although Ubuntu relies on Debian testing/unstable so
it's never going to be as "rolling" as Arch.
