I am not sure whether I get your question, but for testing purposes, I
mostly install software using --prefix=$HOME/local, including dynamic
libraries, which end up in $HOME/local/lib. In order to let programs in
$HOME/local/bin find these libraries, I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
$HOME/local/lib.
