<label class="radio inline check">

            <input class="input ng-new ng-valid" name="BookType" required="" type="radio">

            <!---->

            <!---->
            Fiction
</label>

<label class="radio inline check">   

            <input class="input ng-new ng-valid" name="BookType" required="" type="radio">

            <!---->

            <!---->
            NonFiction
</label>

<label class="radio inline check">

            <input class="input ng-new ng-valid" name="BookTypeReal" required="" type="radio">

            <!---->

            <!---->
            Fiction
</label>

<label class="radio inline check">   

            <input class="input ng-new ng-valid" name="BookTypeReal" required="" type="radio">

            <!---->

            <!---->
            Fantasy
</label>

If I use

element.all(locator).filter(filterFn

the text returned is empty.

How can I go to parent element <label> to get the text?

label[class="radio inline check"] 

returns 60 elements where more than one getText will return same text so it won't be unique.

input[name="BookType"] 

returns two elements where each element is unique.

To get the parent element, you can use XPath's ancestor:

.//*[@name='BookType']/ancestor::label
