I do this a lot and implement it as:
[Testcases]
case_001=tct123
case_002=tct124
case_003=tct101
Then it is pretty easy to do something in my code like:
section='Testcases'
cases=[x for x in INI.options(section) if x.startswith('case_')]
for case in cases:
casefile=INI.get(section, case)
#
# Process each casefile here
