I have an pl file that reads an xml and create another pl file. File is created by looping through an array. Issue is it writes for first element of array but not for further elements. I understand that it is perl features that it opens a file only once but how do I get past this issue and be able to write a file through out loop Also let me know if you have any other tips and comment for my code 

use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use lib '/home/rahul/Documents/';
use script::filldataforlocator qw(clickfield send_keys_field);
use script::readxmlcid qw(get_child_node_value);
use script::getdata qw(connectdatabase);
use XML::LibXML;
 
my $module_used_file = $ARGV[1];
open(my $module_build_file_handle, '<', $module_used_file)or die "Coul
+d not open file $module_used_file: $!";
my @module_file_lines = <$module_build_file_handle>;
close $module_build_file_handle;

my $dom = XML::LibXML->load_xml(location => $ARGV[0]);
my $test_run_file_create = $dom->findvalue('//scenario/runname');
open(my $test_build_file_handle, '>', $test_run_file_create) or die "C
+ould not open file '$test_run_file_create' $!";

  print $test_build_file_handle $_;

                if (defined $locatory_fields_id && defined $locator_ty

                                                print $test_build_file
