Pentest lifecycle

A pentest progresses through these states:

• Created: Pentest exists and can be edited.
• Started: Pentest is running according to the defined scope.
• Paused: Temporarily halted; can be resumed without losing state.
• Completed: Finished; findings and report are available.
• Human needed: Awaiting user action (e.g., additional consent, credentials, or scope clarification).

The state is visible in the sidebar and on the respective live pentest page.
