I'm not Debian developer, so do what you will with what I say;
I've been upgrading testing daily for a couple of weeks. Due, in part,
to cut the amount of packages updated at any one time (highest was about
250 in one day). I've had no insurmountable issues. There have been
days when I had to take care upgrading because there appeared to be a
need to remove huge numbers of essential packages. Much of that could be
my 'fault' because I have repos other than official Debian that I use.
However careful selection of packages allowed me to upgrade in a sane
manner.
Just keep an eye on what is being marked for removal (many will be
libraries being replaced by their t64 counterparts), "just in case".

how to upgrade testing
Hi, could we have a hint when it's "safe" to upgrade testing ? Currently I get for a full-upgrade: 2338 mis à jour, 362 nouvellement installés, 715 à enlever et 41 non mis à jour. Thanks ! Jérémy
