Is there any methods for python+selenium to find parent elements, brother elements, or child elements just like
driver.find_element_parent?
or
driver.find_element_next?
or
driver.find_element_previous
?
eg:
<tr> <td> <select> <option value=0, selected='selected'> </option> <option value=1, > </option> <option value=2,> </option> </select> </td> <td> 'abcd' <input name='A'> </input> <td> <tr>
I’ve tried like below, but fail:
input_el=driver.find_element_by_name('A') td_p_input=find_element_by_xpath('ancestor::input')
How can I get the parent of input element and then, finally, get the option selected?

You can find a parent element by using ..
xpath:
input_el = driver.find_element_by_name('A') td_p_input = input_el.find_element_by_xpath('..')
What about making a separate xpath for getting selected option, like this:
selected_option = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//option[@selected="selected"]')
