```

## Parameters

|  Parameter | Type | Description |
|  --- | --- | --- |
|  values | string\[\] | Values of options to select. If the <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> has the <code>multiple</code> attribute, all values are considered, otherwise only the first one is taken into account. |

**Returns:**

Promise&lt;string\[\]&gt;

## Example


```ts
handle.select('blue'); // single selection
handle.select('red', 'green', 'blue'); // multiple selections
