We are looking for QA tool that allow us to test functionality in our web applications. At this moment we QA all our work/enhancements/defects by hand, but we have so many webapps that is difficult to QA the entire site for a few changes.

We want to have a list of Test Cases that we will run every time we will push a change to development to at least build a confidence level before the push.

I am sure that this is an issue that is normal among us, the web development community.

Selenium is wonderful for functional testing. You can generate tests that automatically run in all the major browsers using SeleniumIDE (a Firefox plugin that records interactions with web pages). Then you can export the tests to source code in a number of popular programming languages (e.g. Java, PHP, etc.)
