Code Workshop

Produce a consolidated FastQC report

The FastQC took is great for producing detailed reports for every individual fastq file. For example, for Igor's 2 PE datasets, 4 reports are produced from running fastqc (http://web.corral.tacc.utexas.edu/iyer/igor/fastqc/).

The shortcoming is that you have to browse through all the individual reports one at a time, which can be tedious for large experiments.

This is where MultiQC's power comes in. You can point MultiQC to a directory where FastQC has been run and it will magically produce a consolidated report.
