How can I check for SSL vulnerabilities on my web server?

Is there an easy way or online tool for checking a site's SSL vulnerability issues?

From the PCI standards I see that a site has to force SSLv3 or TLSv1 protocols and high security encryption algorithms. And I need to check if my site is compliant with those PCI DSS standards.
