My Scraper

this is an educational project required by Microverse as part of the curriculum that requires the construction of a simple scraper and for that I chose the website (https://ca.indeed.com/jobs?q=developer&l=London%2C+ON) to get three informations: The Job's name, Company's name and the date that was posted when It is avaible and I also add tests to check the methods created in the file scraper.rb.
