  • Are you getting any errors? What are you getting then if not "Please select" ? Try to select by text. – lauda Jan 20 '17 at 11:38

  • You selector is ok, you can also try it in the browser and see if it returns only one element, if yes then you might have some code issue, also please add the code used for select if possible. – lauda Jan 20 '17 at 11:44

Try using Select.selectByVisibleText()
