I'm looking for a more developer friendly alternative to HP (Mercury) Quality Center.
I'm interested to find out what other tools developers & testers are using out there to manage their functional and regression test cases.

We've used Selenium before and it's been quite good for our front end testing. We've also used the ArtOfTest WebAii tools before and it had a lot of good support for .net developers.

+1 for Selenium - interestingly enough it (the project) was named Selenium because Selenium (the element) was used in the treatment of Mercury (the element) poisoning. (Although in googling this I found through Wikipedia that this treatment has through "epidemiological studies have been inconclusive".)

I like Selenium but I'm not sure how this answers the question. To me Quality Center is a tool to define tests plans and organize tests where Selenium is closer to Quick Test Pro (QTP).

For a much cheaper commercial alternative SpiraTest from Inflectra seems to be becoming quite popular these days. For open source check out TestLink.

Have a look at StoryTestIQ (STIQ), a mashup of Selenium and FitNesse. It's way more developer friendly than QC and can be used too to create "executable specifications" (for BDD style development).

Try Vienna 2 from http://www.nmqa.com/ as far as I know this is the only serious free test management tool, partenered and certified by microsoft. It will aid you during all the test cycle.

Hello
You can use QPack ALM of Orcanos which is the closest replacement for quality center. The price is reasonable and they also provide a free version for small teams, including test management, requirements management and defect tracking

HP Quality Center is not affordable for 99% of the companies. Testlink (http://teamst.org) is free but has a bunch of limitations and they do not provide any commercial support. XStudio http://www.xqual.com is the only free valuable alternative and there is an optional (very cheap - ~90€/user) commercial support.
