Why are you using testing server? Are you working on dynamic pages such
as ASP or PHP? If not, you should probably be using Remote Site instead.
When is the error appearing? What command in DW are you using to upload
the files? Testing Server is only used for live previews of dynamic pages.
Have you tried doing the FTP setup under Manage Sites > Remote Site?
