Gtests, do we care about leaking memory on asserts?

Hi all,
I am writing a gtest which require memory to be allocated. What is the
policy about freeing it, do we care that we leak that memory on assert? So,
should I care to wrap an RAII object around it or similar?
Took a quick look at the current tests, there are a number of tests which
would leak C-Heap on assert, e.g:
memory/test_metachunk.cpp
memory/test_guardedMemory.cpp
gc/g1/test_freeRegionList.cpp
..
So, I guess this is fine?
Thank you, Thomas
