I'm doing the trainerroad workout which includes a 5 mins 'blow-out' hard effort before the FTP test, precisely for that reason.
Test over again, starting 10W higher. Then again with another 10W, until you fail to increase the AP over the duration. Pacing will get better the more times you do a particular duration effort.
I'm lucky that FTP tests are so much fun.
