Checking all the option in the dropdown requires .each() command.

First use .find() to pick all the option elements

Something like this test would confirm that the text you search for is contained in every dropdown option -

const searchText = 'pav'
cy.get('#search').type(searchText)

cy.get('#search-options').find('option')
  .each($option => {
    cy.wrap($option).should('contain', searchText)
  })

Ultimately, it depends on what you want. I would need to see some code, but I can give some general insight:

If you want a tests to check if the element contains certain text:

cy.get('your HTML element here').contains('your text here');

If you want to do something conditionally if the text exists, you would do something like this:

cy.get('body').then($body =>
    if ($body.find('your HTML element here').contains('your text here')) { 
        cy.get("your HTML element here").then($el => {
            if ($el.is(':visible')){
                // do something if element contains text and visible
            } else{
                // do something if element contains text and is not
            }
        });
    }
});

For overall search:

cy.contains('pav')

To search in a specific element:

cy.get(elem).contains('pav')

here "elem" is your element selector
