You're using elements that will not work. Use element instead. I am sure it will work.

Keep it simple.If there is a single button then try:

Example 1 -

browser.find_element_by_class_name("section-select-all").click()

If multiple buttons with same class name then you can use this:

Example 2 -

buttons = browser.find_elements_by_class_name("section-select-all")
for button in buttons:
    button.click()

If the buttons are in a frame, then make sure you switch to the frame before clicking on it.
