So you cannot see SSID "testThing" when scanning your Wifi? What board are you using? What partition scheme/Flash size are you using on the ESP8266?

In AP mode the thing opens a public access point, this should be visible (appears in list) for others. On the other hand I myself also have a bad experience with MacOS as some WiFi network might not appear, or cannot be connected from a mac. I have good results from Android phone however and even better from Linux machines.
