I have used all the method of locating an element which are applicable here. I have also used time.sleep() function so that the page on which I am locating element can load successfully before finding, but even then also location is not appearing.Here is the pic of html code. Highlighted is the one I want to locate. I have used methods like find_element_by_xpath and find_by_class_name where i get xpath using Firebug but getting the same errorenter image description here. I need help in locating "select" tag.

Instead of *describing* what you have tried post the actual code you. Also, post html as text, not as image. — Guy, May 16 '17 at 06:44

As far as I understood you want to select the dropdown. Use the following code in python to select a dropdown value

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
select = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//select[@class='select_report_type ng-pristine ng-untouched ng-valid']"))
select.select_by_index(1)
// OR
select.select_by_visible_text("text")
// OR
select.select_by_value(value)

Let me know if still facing same issue or any further things
