It recurses automatically.. in fact, it's a common question on how to
stop it from doing that.

just do this: bpbackup -p <policy> -s <schedule> /testing

Note, the "schedule" above has to be a UBAK (user-backup) schedule type.

           [-L progress_log [-en]] [-S master_server...]
           [-t policy_type] [-w [hh:mm:ss]]
           -f listfile | filenames
