I have a div which contains a input with an identifier as id and a label in it. with my selenium method i can easily select the input as a webElement but how can i get the label webElement via the Input WebElement?

   <div class="item-selectable small-2 radio-item columns xsmall-12 item-selectable-stacked">

    <input id="0-3" name="RatingQuestions[0].Score" type="radio" value="3" checked="">

 <label for="0-3">

</label>

 </div>

This is the method in selenium to select the webElement, whcih currently selects only the input and not like it should the label.

public void RateQuestion(int questionnumber, int rating)

        {

            string questionid = questionnumber.ToString() + "-" + rating.ToString();

            IWebElement RateQuestionElement = this.Driver.FindElement(By.Id(questionid));

            RateQuestionElement.Click();

        }

The issue is that only the label is clickable and therefore i need to select the label from the input field, how can i do this?

No, you don't invoke click() on <label> nodes but on <input> nodes.

As per the HTML to invoke click() on the <input> tag with respect to the <label> tag you can use the following solution:

public void RateQuestion(int questionnumber, int rating)

    {

        string questionid = questionnumber.ToString() + "-" + rating.ToString();

        IWebElement RateQuestionElement = this.Driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//label[@for='" + questionid + "']"));

        RateQuestionElement.Click();

    }

There are some options:

1. 
   

   After you select the element with questionId, the you can continue further to select the label.
   e.g:

   
   
   

   IWebElement RateQuestionElement = this.Driver.FindElement(By.Id(questionid));

   
   
   

   IWebElement RateQuestionLabel = RateQuestionElement.FindElement(By.Css("label"));

   
   
   

   RateQuestionLabel.click();

   
   

or

2. 
   

   You can use CssSelector
   e.g:

   
   
   

   myCssSelector = "#myQuestionId label"

   
   
   

   IWebElement RateQuestionElement = this.Driver.FindElement(By.Css(myCssSelector));

   
   
   

   RateQuestionElement.click();

   
   

I have not tried to execute it myself, but the concept is there

Try this:

public void RateQuestion(int questionnumber, int rating)

        {

            string questionid = questionnumber.ToString() + "-" + rating.ToString();

            IWebElement RateQuestionElement = this.Driver.FindElement(By.Id(questionid)).FindElement(By.Xpath("./../../label"));

            RateQuestionElement.Click();

        }

Or this:

public void RateQuestion(int questionnumber, int rating)

            {

                string questionid = questionnumber.ToString() + "-" + rating.ToString();

                IWebElement RateQuestionElement = this.FindElement(By.Xpath("//*[contains(local-name(), 'label') and contains(@for, questionid)]"));

                RateQuestionElement.Click();

            }

The latter one - I'm not that good with C#, so perhaps you'll have to put {questionid} there, rather than just questionid.
