Hey Guys,
I am working on my first TDD/BDDD example and running into a problem,
when I run 'ruby app.rb" The app seems to run fine, but when I run
it's rspec 'spec app_spec.rb" I get a no method defined.

app.rb
require 'rubygems'
require 'open-uri'
require 'hpricot'

class Timer
        #this is the retrieve method used to retrieve the contents of the xml
file

        def self.retrieve
                doc = Hpricot(open('some site'))
                #get the times
                times = doc/"//times"
                puts times
        end
end

Timer.retrieve - this works fine

rspec
require 'app'

describe Timer do
        it "should retrieve the xml info from the site" do
                Timer.should retrieve
  end

end

error:
NameError in 'Timer should retrieve the xml info from the site'
undefined local variable or method `retrieve' for
#<Spec::Example::ExampleGroup::Subclass_1:0xb6dc9c70>
./app.rb:7:


Hope that's clear enough, I am a tad confused about what's going on,
it looks pretty clear cut.
