leaking cracks in poured foundation

i've had several cracks in the foundation since the home was built approx 3 years ago. several have leaked, but were fixed from epoxy injections...i know have a new crack that leak, with very little rain...the area were the crack is under a deck on the outside, so theorectically little water should be around the area? I am planning to finish the basement, what should I do to prevent any future leaky cracks from entering basement. I do not get any water from the joint space between floor and wall (hopefully I never will). My question is can XPS foam be used to covered the walls, and seal at the bottom so small water leaks would not enter the finished space? any suggestions are greatly appreciated
