If it's just to test whether a specific booking class returns a certain price, the easiest thing is probably just to use an advanced routing code:-

mel
qf /f bc=m
cns

And uncheck the box for "Only show flights and prices with available seats".

Then you can repeat for different booking classes until you get a fare that matches.

This doesn't always work for all booking classes because sometimes some fares seem to be caught by point of sale restrictions, but I think it's usually pretty reliable for the higher economy booking classes.

If the OP is in the UK, that might not be quite as easy as it sounds, or quite as easy as a quick, reliable and free internet method.
