you cannot. The line between testing and unstable is blur in debian. Unstable is just newly uploaded package and after some days and without objection, it would be moved to testing. It doesn't indicate anything about 'stability'.
In fact, package in unstable can be more stable thant 'stable', functional wise. stable in debian just mean that at the time of its freezing, there is no known critical bugs.
