There was a problem hiding this comment.
could we also add sth like "prefer a single ProtoEqual over field-by-field" as general guidance?

What changed?
Added a short protorequire package subsection to docs/development/testing.md documenting protorequire.ProtoEqual and the new protorequire.IgnoreFields option, with a minimal usage example.
Why?
Follow-up to PR #9937. Without a doc entry, the new IgnoreFields helper is undiscoverable and contributors will keep reaching for the verbose cmp.Diff pattern.
How did you test it?
