Is there a way to allow users to test Discourse?

My forum is private and I would like my users before registering to be able to browse the forum to check how it works and then decide if they are really interested in registering. So, seriously, how can I do this?

One option I came up with is to create a test user account, but for that the password must be impossible to change, and I didn’t see any option to achieve that, can someone please tell me if there is any similar strategy?

But users wouldn’t have access to the email address password so they wouldn’t be able to verify a password change.

Or just create an example user like:

:envelope: 123@testingexample.com (and activate the test user from their admin user page. This way no password can be changed as the email doesn’t exist if that makes sense)

:bust_in_silhouette: Test

:key: Testing123
