Here my solution: first get elements inside < li> (Maybe there will be more than one):

elements = browser.find_elements_by_xpath("//li[@id='add-to-cart']//input")

for e in elements:
    print(e.get_attribute("name"))

find the button element using one of the find_element_by... methods on a driver (or on a parent WebElement)
read the name of the button or value of an input using .get_attribute(attribute_name)
read the text using property .text
