        Parameters
        ----------
        spec : dict
            `spec` should have, at minimum, a key named ``'design'``.
            The value of this key specifies the |DesignTree|.

            The value of the key ``'filename'`` or ``'file'``, if one exists,is saved in |Experiment.filename|.
            All other fields are saved in |Experiment.experiment_data|.
