The test suite has been fixed. (The initial line is no longer commented out.)
Another problem in the test suite? The 2nd line in the test suite:
movefile submission/colon.m @function_handle
gives an error:
The function colon is a built-in MATLAB function. Please use a different function name.
Fixed.
