OK, first routine get_tbl_id_list:
  1. you use table to get last table_id,
  2. then constants to get hmax table_id (does other processing change this result, not constant for the whole run and should be outside the loops?)
  3. if = then say all done and return
  4. else make a table id file.
Not sure why it needs to be a sub, since it looks like you call it once. Not sure who calls it when. $LOADER_ID never used, or hidden parameter to something?

Second, migrate_tables
  1. echos a message
  2. calls routine #1 with $1 and constant (which will be ignored?)
  3. other stuff
Hardly worth having a function.

Third, main code:
  1. $1 has to be ALL to do any of the referenced code.
  2. echo a message
  3. call #2 with constant tab_abc (low table?)
  4. call #2 with constant tab_xyz (high table?) which will overwrite product of step 3 unless all are done. Maybe that is always true, which would be somewhat contrived.
Not sure what it does or lacks. Normally, you want to loop through a process from a known starting point until a predictable end point. Nothing here loops. I am not sure what is modeled or processed. Who modifies tab_pqr? Who reads the file? Does stp_ctr_tbl_id('ARIB', 'GET') output change as tables are modified in this process? We only call it twice. Maybe we should take the table ids out of that file and migrate them?

test::bdd::cucumber::stepfile

Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile(3pm)

NAME

       Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile - Functions for creating and loading Step Definitions

VERSION

       version 0.11

DESCRIPTION

       Provides the Given/When/Then functions, and a method for loading Step Definition files and returning the steps.

SYNOPSIS

       Defining steps:

	#!perl

	use strict; use warnings; use Test::More;

	use Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile;
	use Method::Signatures; # Allows short-hand func method

	Given 'something',	    func ($c) { print "YEAH!" }
	When  qr/smooooth (d+)/,   func ($c) { print "YEEEHAH $1" }
	Then  qr/something (else)/, func ($c) { print "Meh $1" }
	Step  qr/die now/,	    func ($c) { die "now" }

       Loading steps, in a different file:

	use Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile;
	my @steps = Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepFile->load('filename_steps.pl');

EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

   Given
   When
   Then
   Step
       Accept a regular expression or string, and a coderef. Some cute tricks ensure that when you call the "load()" method on a file with these
       statements in, these are returned to it...

   load
       Loads a file containing step definitions, and returns a list of the steps defined in it, of the form:

	(
	 [ 'Given', qr/abc/, sub { etc } ],
	 [ 'Step',  'asdf',  sub { etc } ]
	)
