Honestly, this is actually up to the Okular devs to rectify. IIRC this is also what the Calligra devs did with the one test app that did this. 
I think that either you patch out the 2 (?) tests, or you add a line that creates a proper shared library from the same files as the plugin, and link the test apps against that.

FYI: the same issue will (very likely) occur when building on MS Windows. IIRC plugins are "more different" from shared libraries there than they are on OS X. In fact, OS X allows to use shared libraries as plugins just as Linux does, but has an additional type ("bundle") which is meant to be used as a loadable module. The difference is in symbol visibility; bundles can have access to all symbols from a designated "bundle loader" (= host app) and apparently lack information required by the link editor (ld).
