One way to do it: define a factory interface (or abstract class) which 
creates AbstractInfoChecker.  Create an enum map for TestCaseType as key 
and the factory type as value.  Initialize the map with the proper 
factory instances (could even be anonymous classes).

Another way to do it: just create a factory method which returns 
AbstractInfoChecker; implement it with a switch over TestCaseType.

Yet another way: put the specific logic into enum TestCaseType and use 
it from there.

Kind regards
