perl regexp matching

Hello,

I cannot see what's wrong in my code.
When I run code below, it just print an empty string.

PHP Code:
my $test "SWER~~ERTGSDFGTHAS_RTAWGA_DFAS.x4-234253454.in";
if (
$test = ~ m/\~{1,2}[A-Z].*[xX]4/) {
   print 
"$1\n";
}
else {
   print 
"No match...\n";

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!
