Check 'checkBox' in another way -> xPath - selenium

Question

I'm using this code:
//input[#type='checkbox'][following-sibling::text()[position()=1]][2]
for checking boxes, but i want to use string, not number (example: 'Uczyń odpowiedzialnym' instead of [2]).
I tried this, but it doesn't work:
//input[#type='checkbox'][following-sibling::text()[position()=1][contains(., 'Uczyń odpowiedzialnym')]]
HTML code:
<input class="prettifiedIeCheckbox ng-pristine ng-valid" type="checkbox" ng-model="holdersModel.OnlyForRead"></input>
<label>
<span class="bottom">
Tylko do wglądu
</span>
</label>
<input class="prettifiedIeCheckbox ng-pristine ng-valid" type="checkbox" ng-model="holdersModel.ChangeMainHolder"></input>
<label>
<span class="bottom">
Uczyń odpowiedzialnym
</span>
</label>

Answer 1

You need to check the span element's text in the following label sibling node:
//input[#type='checkbox' and following-sibling::label/span = 'Uczyń odpowiedzialnym']
There are, certainly, other ways to locate the element. For instance, check ng-model:
//input[contains(#ng-model, 'ChangeMainHolder')]

Answer 2

You can also use the below xpath:
//span[contains(.,'Uczyn odpowiedzialnym')]/preceding::input[1]
This will select the first input element that is present before the span element with exact innerHTML/text as Uczyń odpowiedzialnym.

Answer 3

I found another (better) solution on sqa.stackexchange by #Sam Woods, modified for my problem:
IWebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[#type='checkbox' and contains(#ng-model, 'ChangeMainHolder')]"));
if (!element.Selected)
{
element.Click();
}
