I understand you want to check in all check-out files under a library, you may have a try below cmdlets:

   function CheckInDocument([string]$url)
    {
        $spWeb = Get-SPWeb $url
        $getFolder = $spWeb.GetFolder("Test lib")
        $getFolder.Files | Where { $_.CheckOutStatus -ne "None" } | ForEach
        {
            Write-Host "$($_.Name) is Checked out To: $($_.CheckedOutBy)"
            $_.CheckIn("Checked In By Administrator")
            Write-Host "$($_.Name) Checked In" -ForeGroundColor Green
        }
        $spWeb.Dispose()
    }
