Answer 1

[glihm]

If you want to analyze the quality from your fastq files from NGS sequencing, take a look to FastQC. Efficient and clear reports. You can also use it from command line in customized pipelines.

Answer 2

Have a look at RSeQC as well, it mainly evaluates the quality of mapping and gene coverage rather than reads quality.
