   1. A recent regular deployment / quick deployment execution has happened post the Validation.

   2. The provided deployment job ID was created as part of validation that happened 10 days prior.

2. ERROR running force:source:deploy: INVALID_ID_FIELD: Source validate did not run tests in the org
   This error occurs when the provided Validation deployment Job ID was executed with NoTestRun chosen or without any Unit test levels. Therefore it becomes ineligible for Quick Deployment.

   (i) ID is unsuccessful or in-progress.
   (ii) ID is not having test execution available.
   (iii) ID doesn’t meet the test coverage criteria (75%).

4. ERROR running force:source:deploy: INVALID_ID_FIELD: Source is not a check-only deploy
   This error occurs when the provided Validation deployment Job ID is not a job ID created as part of Validation but rather as part of Deployment and therefore is not applicable for Quick Deployment.

5. ERROR running force:source:deploy: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION: invalid parameter value
   The error occurs when the provided Validation deployment Job ID is not a valid Salesforce deployment ID and therefore not applicable for Quick Deployment.

6. ERROR running force:source:deploy: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION: unexpected metadata
