I conducted two rounds of usability studies. Findings from the first study helped guide the designs from wireframes to mockups.
The second study used a high-fidelity prototype and revealed the aspects of the mockups which needed to be refined.
Users requested the ability to edit quantities directly within the basket. This was added to the next iteration of prototype.
43% of users in the study wanted
