How to assert which value is selected in drop-down

All the docs seem to be explaining how to select a value in a drop-down, but I need to assert that a specific value is selected, without making any changes. I'm new to Cypress, so haven't been able to figure it out yet.

I tried cy.get('.selector').contains('expected string'); but the test fails with this error message --

expected <.selector> to have value 1st of the month after 60 days, but the value was ''

and Cypress.IO Select Drop Down didn't help either.

Fwiw, the selector is Vuetify's v-select

Any advice?

Assuming:

<select><option value="Alice">Bob</option> ... </select>

In a cypress test you can write:

cy.get('select').select('Bob').should('have.value', 'Alice')
