• your logs are misleading, for now, even if the intent is good: which one is eactual and which one is expected?
• looking at the logs of the 25x25, at 10,13 for the center... looks like what you said about the axis is totally wrong, isn't? => x is horizontal going right, and y is vertical going... down!? See, talking about "is rows... us columns" doesn't tell if you're talking about the indexes of the axis...

consider this one as a very strong suggestion:

in the sample tests, you should show the strings using multiline ones. This way the expecte'd result is immediatly visible from the user.

x are columns

• you need to precise that x is going down, just like usual in a 2D array.
• the description and the tests are expecially confusing about wht should be returned: string? array?
  • string is visible in the sample tests, but you use an unknown custom assertion function
  • the description doesn't say anythig really clear about that
  • the assertions are showing that 2D arrays are tested... => what the user is supposed to return, actually?
    => you have to be pretty clear about that
