I allways say "an untested backup does not exist"

A backup that is untested is a backup that does not exist?

A backup that is untested does not exist?

There exists no backup that is untested?

Any interpretation of your statement seems cautionary to me. :-)

I don't understand what you are trying to say, my point is that until you have tested your backups you can't rely on them, and thus should not bring them into consideration when planning disaster recovery procedures until you know they are good.
