✅ XML Serialization

I want to customize XML serialization. This is sample class

public class Sample{
   public List<TestCategory> TestList {get;set;}
}

public class TestCategory{
   public string Value {get;set;} = "Random string";
}

public class Sample{
   public List<TestCategory> TestList {get;set;}
}

public class TestCategory{
   public string Value {get;set;} = "Random string";
}

It's my first time to do stuff with XML, quite new to this. What can I do to achieve my target? Thank you Here is serialization code :

            var item = new Sample();
            item.TestList = new List<Category>(){new TestCategory(),new TestCategory(),new TestCategory(),new TestCategory(),};
            string fileName = "";
            XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Sample));
            TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(fileName);
            x.Serialize(writer, item);

            var item = new Sample();
            item.TestList = new List<Category>(){new TestCategory(),new TestCategory(),new TestCategory(),new TestCategory(),};
            string fileName = "";
            XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Sample));
            TextWriter writer = new StreamWriter(fileName);
            x.Serialize(writer, item);

The simplest way would be to have a model that more accurately reflects the desired XML structure. You could map your original data into this new structure before serialization or after deserialization.
