You could always point your system to unstable instead of testing and
upgrade:

from /etc/apt/sources.list, you should have something like:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main

change to:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable main

Then update:
 apt-get update;apt-get install kde

Don't know what else you may have to pull in from unstable to fulfill
kde's dependencies though...
