That works for me. It meets my basic requirement to get from the building.md -> testing.md without having to manually modify the url.

That would be appreciated. It saves me from figuring out the right pandoc setup.
It does make me wonder though - is the overhead of running pandoc on markdown files for trivial changes like this worth it to provide OpenJDK branded css formatting? Would it be better to just unconditionally link to the markdown for this purpose? I don't know the history around this setup so asking as a new person to the project.
