Automated code generation is a longstanding challenge in both communities of software engineering and artificial intelligence. Currently, some works have started to investigate the functional correctness of code generation, where a code snippet is considered correct if it passes a set of test cases. However, most existing works still model code generation as text generation without considering program-specific information, such as functionally equivalent code snippets and test execution feedback. To address the above limitations, this paper proposes a new idea of combining program analysis with deep learning for neural code generation, where functionally equivalent code snippets and test execution feedback will be considered at the training stage. Specifically, we firstly design several code transformation heuristics to produce different variants of the code snippet satisfying the same functionality. In addition, we employ the test execution feedback and design a test-driven discriminative task to train a novel discriminator, aiming to let the model distinguish whether the generated code is correct or not. The preliminary results on a newly published dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework for code generation. Particularly, in terms of the pass@1 metric, we achieve 8.81 and 11.53 gains compared with CodeGPT and CodeT5, respectively.
