If you setup an empty test project, then DUnitX will throw an ENoTestsRegistered.
This exception is not handled, which results in two things:
- a run-time error 217 if your application is a non-UI application
- a memory leak detected by FastMM4
So better catch the ENoTestsRegistered exception in your .dpr level: a caught exception will be destroyed by the exception handling mechanism.

Leak example (the stack trace towards the top of the stack is in accurate; this is a Delphi problem with handling exceptions that bubble up to the main project entry point)
