Many types of tests: I am not a Urologist, but in medical school we had a required rotation in Urology. There are many tests that were used for diagnosis. You may not need them all, and they are usually done sequentially, and at home with specific devices that are loaned out. One such test is a nocturnal tumescence test. If you have hypospadias, you should see a Urologist anyways to get this matter checked out.

Yes: Best to ask a urologist of course, but they can perform a physical and possibly assess blood flow via doplper ultrasound to determine adequate blood flow to produce an erection

First uroflowmetry: Urologist 1st needs to determine whether or not urethral stricture is present (common complication of hypospadias repair) unless you have full urinary stream. Stricture causes slow &/or narrow stream & ejaculation problems. Then may suggest cystoscopy to inspect entire urethra including ints-urethral ejaculatory duct openings. Urethral strictures can be corrected also obstructed ejaculatory ducts
