Hi,


Today we have an annotation for each test called Info. I need to check
this information. Information is different depending if it is a
create, get, set, update operation.

@Info(
              time = Time.ISO9600,
              attr = {
                  AREA,
                  SERVICE,
                  ROUTING,
                  }, type = TestCaseType.CREATE, positive = false,
description = ""
             )

Then I have a testsummary class that access to all this information
for each test case using a HashMap containing "TestCaseName",Info.
<String, Info>

What I want to do is to check information in @Info -tag depending if
it is a create, get, set, update test case type.

The idea I have is to have an abstract base class like:

public abstract AbstractInfoChecker{
   public abstract boolean checkInfo(Info info);
}


and  impl classes for each operation tests:

public class Create extends AbstractInfoChecker{

   public boolean checkInfo(Info info){
   if(info.time().equalsIngoreCase("ISO9600"){
   //check other
    return true;
   }
   return false;
}

Q: How do a create an instance of right type depending on
TestCaseType.nnn e.g. CREATE --> instance of
      Create.
      I have my Info stored in testsummary  like this:  Info info =
(Info) entry.getValue();
      I can access the different values Info object.

All comments and hints are much appreciated.

br,
