Make the test suite more robust which will prevent from accepting answer of just lone test suite.

x = [3 -6; 8 5];
y_correct = -3;
Should this be -6?

Last test case is flawed. Please fix it.

Please fix the test case 2.

Please check the test case 2. The min value should be -6.
Also correct the testsuite for test 3: function name is listed as "your_fcn_name" instead of "matrix_min"

Nobody can solve this problem because of the last test case, it has wrong name for the function.
