There are two ways:

**1) Using GUI Spy**  
Use GUI Spy to locate the radio button. It helps identify stable attributes (name, value, id, text) and provides the dynamic XPath.

**2) Manually Writing Dynamic XPath**  
Inspect the radio button and create XPath using stable attributes. Common approaches:

- Using attribute:  
`//input[@type='radio' and @value='Option1']`

- Using label text:  
`//label[text()='Option1']/preceding-sibling::input[@type='radio']`

- Using contains():  
`//input[@type='radio' and contains(@value,'Option')]`

**Note: It is recommended to use GUI Recorder or generate the step using GUI Spy for better accuracy and stability.**
