Automatically create properties for a data source

Data Looping is what got me excited for the Pro version.

But there is no way to the DataGeneration step to extract properties out of my excel file. When you make a ‘DataSource’ you need a properties file or to manually add the properties by hand.

Each test case may have 20+ properties. These properties need to be labeled in excel for readability. Making a separate properties file is re-doing this labeling & wasting time.

How can I have it automatically take the properties out of the columns in excel? Is this possible?

I like how the datasource is set-up and organized. Using a groovy script for every time i need to do this could be an ugly approach. Is groovy my only option?
