@danielvdao I am not sure if what you are doing is the intent of the gem. I think that overriding the default class for the experiment is useful for publishing / etc, but there is no need to include For your example I would either include classSomeClassincludeScientistdefrun_foofoo=Foo.newscience"experiment"do |e|
e.try{foo.xxxxx}e.use{foo.yyyyy}endendendOr if that is not possible then run through classSomeClassdefrun_foofoo=Foo.newScientist.run"experiment"do |e|
e.try{foo.xxxxx}e.use{foo.yyyyy}endendend |

Relates to #162. I'm happy to close if it's unnecessary!
Thoughts:
I found that making a class the default experiment a little aggressive and wondered if there was another way around this. It looks like in the code I could do something like this, but this seems not ideal for two reasons:
Scientist::Experiment.set_default(Scientist::Default)to preserve backwards compatibility for current classes thatinclude Scientist, but notScientist::ExperimentScientist::Defaultwas not the default class, then this could be a breaking change for gem users)That said, I realized now that this might be my ignorance around the gem -- but it looks like running a scientist experiment class in isolation might not be "the right way to use the library" 😝 and I could've been wrong to begin with? Though I am wondering, if this allows for us to actually run multiple experiments at once 🤔 I attached a code snippet of what I was doing, and would love to hear thoughts!
I was doing something like the following:
