If you are wanting to create automated test cases using selenium-webdriver for an application, manage a xml configuration file. Using xml configuration files you can manage you test cases easily. Example configuration :

<test browser-name="firefox" domain="...">
    <!-- browser parameters -->
    <url-config>
        <!-- Test case..1 -->
        <!-- Test case..2 -->
        <!-- Test case..n -->
    </url-config>
    <forms>
        <!-- form 1 -->
        <!-- form 2 -->
        <!-- form n -->
    </forms>
</test>

You can also include .xsd for validate your driver settings.

Hope this gives you some idea.
