You don't want a flexible lower back.

Edit:What's the problem?

And the test for improvement would be a reach test etc?
Overall you want your lower back as stable as possible. Improving hamstring flexibility would be the ideal route.

If you Google those 4 things you listed you will get all the information you need.

Don't do this. Instead lean to one side to roll each erector.

ya that guy gave you some good options. another for the self-myofacial is using the stick instead of the foam roller, the stick tends to work better with getting each side of erectors on their own/kind into the obliques. i also like the modified hurdler's stretch (really gets each side well) for static. again the question would be why you need more lower back flexibility and if you are looking at any other areas around the lumbopelvic area that are tight, etc. the body's good at balancing, so usually we can't just do something to one area without if having some effect on another area (whether that effect be beneficial or problematic) good luck and train hard.
