将A视为B,其中的“视为”主要是你已经知道A不是B,例如:我将她视为我的妈妈
将A看成B,其中的“看成”表示你不知道B不是A ,有将A 错认为B 的意思

“视为” has in some way the same meaning as “看成” , but more official, here is an example:
我把他视为我最大的敌人。
我把他看成(是)我最大的敌人。
(I see him as my biggest enemy.)
In this case both sentences mean the same thing. And as for me it just feels more natural to put a “是 ”after “看成”. It wouldn't be wrong if you don't do it.
And here’s a situation they could not be exchanged:
我把他看成了你。
In this case “看成” means you took sth or someone wrong as another thing or person.
You mistook A as B by seeing which is “看”. There is also a “听成”,which means you mistook A as B by hearing.
I hope my explanation could help you.
