+# DefaultConstraint
+
+`DefaultConstraint` tests that the actual value is the default value for the type.
+
+It is implemented equal to the C# keyword `default`.
+
+## Constructor
+
+```csharp
+DefaultConstrint()
+```
+
+## Syntax
+
+```csharp
+Is.Default
+Has.Length.Default
+Has.Count.Default
+Is.Not.Default
+```
+
+All resolvable properties of `Has` can be used with the `Default` property.
+`Default` can be used with the `Not` operator.
+`Default` can be used with the combinatorial operators.
+
+## Examples of use
