No. If you're running the IdP all testshib cuold provide you with is a
SAML SP. Since you already have set up your own SP you could either
forget about testshib and configure the IdP and SP per the
documentation or use the testshib SP with your local IdP.
>From the error message from your SP

00:44:52.358 - ERROR
[edu.internet2.middleware.shibboleth.idp.profile.AbstractSAMLProfileHandler:429]
- No return endpoint available for relying party https://idp.moch.dk/idp/shibboleth

That just means what it says: your SP does not yet know your IdP.
So configure the SP according to
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/NativeSPGettingStarted
Step "Supply or link to at least one IdP's metadata using one or more
<MetadataProvider> elements".
