  now, just to be clear, i shouldn't *need* to do this, correct? in
any case, i did and:

$ sudo dnf clean all
[sudo] password for rpjday:
langpacks: No languages are enabled
Cleaning repos: fedora updates-testing updates adobe-linux-x86_64
Cleaning up Everything
$

so you can see updates-testing is one of the repos being cleaned.
next, i tried to update *only* the cockpit package, which again
appears to show that updates-testing is being consulted:

$ sudo dnf update cockpit
langpacks: No languages are enabled
Fedora 22 - x86_64                  2.3 MB/s |  41 MB     00:17

Fedora 22 - x86_64 - Updates        530 kB/s |  13 MB     00:24

Nothing to do.
Complete!

 but once again, nothing is done, even though it seems pretty clear
there is a newer version of that package in updates-testing:

[rpjday at localhost yum.repos.d]$ rpm -q cockpit
cockpit-0.60-1.fc22.x86_64
[rpjday at localhost yum.repos.d]$ dnf info cockpit
langpacks: No languages are enabled
