One of DLRS's more obscure capabilities is that the rollup does not have to go across an actual relationship field. As long as the field designated as the relationship field holds a string of an 18 character Id, DLRS can handle that.
A custom field that's text (18 characters) already exists (QALookupChild.Parent_by_String__c)
Add parent objects and then child objects with Ids of parents in the field (Snowfakery task)
Add a rollup that works across that text field
Add automated testing that checks that the rollups are correct.
Relationship field is created along with three test records.
Upon insert the lookup by string field has the Id of records that don't exist (because Ids have changed). Will need something to fill this with valid results!
Rollup is created.
