write a function? - bare in mind this is just an idea -
it would need more work to make it usuable (and the code
is completely untested):

class Test {}
function castFromArray($class, $arr)
{
$x = new $class;
foreach ($arr as $k => $v) {$x->$k = $v;}
return $x;
}

$t = castFromArray('Test', array("test1" => 123,
"test2" => 345,
"test3" => "abc"));

var_dump($t);
