'''Fragment processing''' is a term in [[computer graphics]] referring to a collection of operations applied to [[Fragment (computer graphics)|fragment]]s generated by the [[rasterization]] operation in the [[rendering pipeline]].

During the [[Rendering (computer graphics)|rendering]] of computer graphics, the rasterization step takes a [[Primitive (geometry)|primitive]], described by its [[vertex (computer graphics)|vertex]] [[coordinates]] with associated [[color]] and [[Texture (computer graphics)|texture]] information, and converts it into a set of [[Fragment (computer graphics)|fragment]]s. These fragments then undergo a series of processing steps, e.g. scissor test, alpha test, depth test, stencil test, blending, [[texture mapping]] and so on. These steps are collectively referred to as ''fragment processing''.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rost |first=Randi J. |title=OpenGL Shading Language |publisher=[[Addison-Wesley]] |year=2006 |isbn=0-321-33489-2}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=McReynolds |first=Tom |title=Advanced Graphics Programming Using OpenGL |last2=Blythe, David |publisher=[[Elsevier]] |year=2005 |isbn=1-55860-659-9}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Astle |first=Dave |url=https://archive.org/details/openglesgamedeve0000astl |title=OpenGL ES Game Development |last2=Durnil, Dave |publisher=Thomson Course Technology |year=2004 |isbn=1-59200-370-2 |url-access=registration}}</ref>
