Description

The CreditCardValidator class Javadoc says:

"By default, all supported card types are allowed."

However the default constructor says it supports:

AMEX, VISA, MASTERCARD and DISCOVER

which agrees with the code.

It looks as though the default constructor was not updated when new validators were added.

I think it would make more sense to include all the provided validators in the default, but this could be considered a change of behaviour.
