Device-independent self-testing allows to uniquely characterize the quantum state shared by untrusted parties (up to local isometries) by simply inspecting their correlations, and requiring only minimal assumptions, namely a no-signaling constraint on the untrusted parties and the validity of quantum mechanics. The device-independent approach exploits the fact that certain non-local correlations can be uniquely achieved by measurements on a particular quantum state. We can think of these correlations as a "classical fingerprint" of the self-tested quantum state. In this work, we answer affirmatively the outstanding open question of whether all pure bipartite entangled states can be self-tested, by providing explicit self-testing correlations for each.
