Assigning a TopoDS_Face object to its child object compiles with no errors but I have 3 valgrind errors

I have a class called Test which inherits the TopoDS_Face class. Already got some tips from This question but...

    // Test.h
    class Test : public TopoDS_Face
    {
      public:
         void operator = (const TopoDS_Face& base_)
         {
            TopoDS_Face::operator=(base_);
         }
    }

    // testmain.cpp 
    ...
    int main() {
      //extract faces from IGES face
      for (int i = 1; i <= nbs; i++) {
        TopoDS_Shape shape = myIgesReader.Shape(i);
        TopoDS_Face& face = static_cast<TopoDS_Face&>(TopoDS::Face(shape));
        Test *test;
        // tried each of these also and did not succeed
        // Test *test = dynamic_cast<Test*>(&face);
        // test = &face

        test->TopoDS_Face::operator=(face);
        ...
    }

}

The code in main extracts faces from an IGES file and each face to the test object created in main. The compilation goes on well but valgrind complains with the following error:

I need help with solving the program. Thanks in advance.
