Depending on the formatting etc. of the real data, this could
get pretty difficult, but for your simple example data
iterating over the lines and using a regular expression
(with a named capture group) would work:

1.9.3-p194 :001 > /<tr>(?<value>.*?)<\/tr>/ =~ '  <tr>Test</tr>'
  => 2
1.9.3-p194 :002 > value
  => "Test"

But it certainly is not the "most cool way" and will break when
the html is formatted differently, like e.g.

<tr>
   <td>...</td><td>...</td><td>...</td>
</tr>

or

<tr>
   <td id='whatever'>...</td>
   ...
</tr>
