In the field of software development, the agile development approach based on DevOps has become quite common. However, in engineering practices, agile development still faces challenges from both business and technical aspects. For example, how to effectively evaluate User Story Points when business requirements are complex and diverse, how to integrate development and testing effectively to assess the balance between efficiency and quality, and how to adjust and continuously improve in the ever-changing process of agile development as it demands quick delivery of software with small and usable features. Since document development is closely linked with software development, agile document development poses challenges and requirements for individual document engineers as well as the entire documentation team. For individual document engineers, it is necessary to enhance their skills in various dimensions such as business understanding, technical expertise, and documentation skills. For instance, they need to effectively evaluate the documentation work for split subprojects, find ways to achieve penetration and coordination in the face of closely integrated research and development, and adapt the documents to ever-changing software iteration process. For the entire team, it is important to consider how to improve team management from aspects such as workflow, standards, and tools.
