What is the best tool to develop automate tests at the GUI (web) level and works well with Jira?

[Hector_Perez]

As a member of an agile team, I got asked to find a software tool that facilitates the development of automated tests for regression testing of our web site and GUI. Is there a an established tool that works well with Jira and facilitates writing tests? The tool should be able to record user steps and replay. It will also be ideal that it facilitates editing recorded tests and creating new ones.

Our product is access via a web link (URL).

Xray and Zephyr are the main choices. Both integrate well with the most common test automation frameworks (Selenium, Cucumber, Junit, TestNG).

Are these test management tools? or can you also create new manual and automated tests within these tools?

If they are only management tools, then what tools are used for creating tests?
