Uncaught TypeError: el is not a function

I'm trying to make a function to disable buttons depending on a media query. This function receives a DOM element. For some reason, I got the following error: Uncaught TypeError: el.forEach is not a function when I try to resize the window. I try to debug this and seems that the first run works as expected, but then the argument suddenly change of type to an event and that's how I got the error. So, I'm not sure why this is happening or how to fix this.

        <button class="test">Hey</button>
        <button class="test">Hey</button>
        <button class="test">Hey</button>
    </div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        const testElements = document.querySelectorAll('.test');
        const handleDisabled = el => {
            if (window.matchMedia('(min-width: 992px)').matches) {
                el.forEach((te => {
                    te.setAttribute('disabled', '');
                }));
            } else {
                el.forEach((te => {
                    te.removeAttribute('disabled');
                }));
            }
        }

        window.addEventListener('resize', handleDisabled);
        handleDisabled(testElements);
    </script>
