ii is just deleting everything, not just one item.

I recall a similar question where we had to focus on specific actions, so I’m leaning towards option C with i and iii being the best choices.

I think option v is valid too, but it seems a bit redundant since it doesn't specify the time constraint like the others.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like option iv is definitely not relevant since it talks about payment, not item deletion.

I remember we discussed acceptance criteria in class, and I think option i and iii are really close to what we practiced.

I've got a strategy - I'll eliminate the options that don't directly address the user story, then choose the best one.

I'm not sure, I think it could also be C) i and iii because they involve deleting unwanted items from the shopping list.

Wait, does this mean I can delete my entire shopping cart in under a second? Talk about some serious buyer's remorse prevention!

Nah, v is missing the 'in less than 1 second' part, so it can't be the right answer. I'd go with c.

Haha, I hope the customer isn't trying to cancel their entire order just because they forgot to remove a single item! Option iv seems a bit off-topic.

I think the correct answer is i and iii. Deleting an individual item and the entire list in under a second are the key acceptance criteria.
