Get <select> value in $(this) row

I have a table consisting of elements like this

<tr>
    <td>1</td>
    <td><select>
    <option>a</option>
    <option>b</option>
    </select>
    </td>
    <td>3</td>
    <button id="button"></button>   
</tr>

How can i get all values of current row including selected option when press button by using jquery? I want to get: 1 'a'('a' option selected for example) 3

If by "values" you mean the 1 and the 3 in the other two cells, you'd use closest to find the row, then use find or children to access the tds in it. Here's one way you might do it:

$("#button").on("click", function() {
  // Get the row
  var row = $(this).closest("tr");
  // Get the cells and their contents:
  row.children("td").each(function() {
    var $this = $(this);
    // Ignore the one with the button
    if (!$this.find("button").length) {
      // Does this one have the select?
      var select = $this.find("select");
      if (select.length) {
        // Yes, use that
        console.log(select.val());
      } else {
        // No, grab text
        console.log($(this).text());
      }
    }
  });
});
<table>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>1</td>
      <td><select>
      <option>a</option>
      <option>b</option>
      </select>
      </td>
      <td>3</td>
      <td>
        <button id="button">I'm a button</button>
      </td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

But refer to the API, there are lots of other ways you might access those tds.

Note that I wrapped the button in a td. Your original markup is invalid, you can't have a button as a direct child of a tr.

Also note that if you have more than one tr, you can't use id="button" on all of them (probably better to use a class), but I'm guessing from the ID that that's just a placeholder you put in for the question. :-)
