Testing honeypot

Test a CF honeypot field.

Overview

The issue is needing to verify the honeypot anti-spam function works without waiting for a spam submission.
You can test it by either increasing the form's honeypot timer or by using your browser's developer tools to make the hidden honeypot field visible and manually entering a value into it.
