They aren't linked. They are passed in as extra args. Re:

It's the "input-files" argument.
Thanks, this works. But unfortunately this method requires tests and
examples to be rewritten. Also, is there a way to receive library name
without a version ("libtest_library.so" instead of
"libtest_library.so.1.59.0")?
OK, the solution works for Linux but fails on Windows.

In Jamfile I'm explicitly requesting to build shared library:

    lib my_plugin_sum : ../example/tutorial1/my_plugin_sum.cpp :
<link>shared ;
    lib my_plugin_aggregator :
../example/tutorial2/my_plugin_aggregator.cpp : <link>shared ;

But when I'm feeding those libraries to the test as input files:
        [ run ../example/tutorial3/tutorial3.cpp : : my_plugin_aggregator
my_plugin_sum ]

I recieve the following 2 first parameters, one of which is a static
library:
"D:\boost\bin.v2\libs\dll\test\msvc-12.0\dbg\adrs-mdl-64\thrd-mlt\my_plugin_sum-vc120-mt-gd-1_60.dll"
"D:\boost\bin.v2\libs\dll\test\msvc-12.0\dbg\adrs-mdl-64\thrd-mlt\my_plugin_sum-vc120-mt-gd-1_60.lib"

Is there a way to receive only shared libraries via input-files?
