Description

The [QC step](https://training.galaxyproject.org/training-material/topics/microbiome/tutorials/metagenomics-assembly/tutorial.html#comment-4) of the tutorial suggests to upload the html results of QUAST.

This does not work: https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/issues/19220 also the results are not available as data library (or I have not found it).

In my tests the QUAST step took 5 hours and failed for some of the datasets, since it downloads reference genomes from NCBI which seems to fail from time to time (as in this super old [issue](https://github.com/ablab/quast/issues/8)).

- Restarting quast seems possible, but problematic for the [multi-output tool](https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/issues/18531), i.e. one one gets one updated output. Maybe this might work out if combined with MultiQC
- Maybe replace QUAST by CheckM?
