Scenario Outline doesn't work with #Examples but does work with @dataFile

[ykhudos]

QAF Version

3.1.0b

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a Junit4/Cucumber5 test with Scenario Outline that reads data from an Excel file
2. When using Examples: {"datafile":"location/of/excel/file.xls"} the scenario is not executed
3. When using @datafile:location/of/excel/file.xls the scenario is executed

Expected behavior

In a xxx.feature file Scenario Outline should work if Examples: {"datafile":"location/of/excel/file.xls"} provided

Actual behavior

The Scenario Outlline is skiped.

Is the issue reproducible on runner?
